I just get an hour for lunch. But if I need to mentally reset throughout the day, there's never an issue. Things are relatively slow most days, so I can just zone out and scroll for a bit if I find my attention/focus/motivation waning.
We are supposed to take two- 15 minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch break. However, we are so short-staffed that we really can't leave the floor. I want to take breaks but I feel like I can't.

I get a one hour lunch break and another 15 min break!

And this is throughout a 12 hour shift!

I get half an hour for lunch. But I’ll still take a restroom break if I need to outside of that half hour
Hour lunches are pretty standard across the board in dentistry. Sometimes and little shorter or longer depending on the day, but I always find a couple minutes in between patients to mentally reset 😌
When I worked in NY and MA, they both had state laws that required a 1/2 hour unpaid meal break for shifts of 6 hours or more. Employer had the discretion of allowing 15-minute breaks, depending on hours scheduled. My career field always seemed to allow 2 paid 15-minute breaks per 8-hour shift. Granted most of the staff were never able to take any of the breaks because the companies were making us do more, with the same staff. Like 12 hours of work smushed into an 8-hour shift.
On the rare occasion I did leave the floor for a meal break, I was usually called back to the floor within 10-15 minutes anyway.
