The purpose of this narrative review is to capture the needs and challenges of clinical dental risk management to minimize the risk of adverse incidents in dental practices.

There is a need for a system to identify, mitigate, and prevent circumstances that increase the likelihood and consequence of risks and harm to patients in dental practices.
