One of the most prevalent types of work-related injuries are musculoskeletal disorders. Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs) result in persistent pain, loss of functional capacity and work disability, but initial diagnosis is difficult because they are mainly based on complaints of pain and symptoms. "An ounce of prevention is better than pounds of cure" ......That's what dental health care workers spend their day telling their patients, but it also applies to working conditions that can cause pain in the neck, shoulder and hand to a dentist. Dentists and dental students often assume awkward physical positions while providing treatment to (a) get a better view of the intraoral cavity; (b) provide a more comfortable position for the patient; and/or (c) operate equipment and reach for instruments and supplies. This update reviews various causes, signs, symptoms of musculoskeletal disorder and their preventive measures and various exercises to work with comfort, efficiency and ease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
