Dentists are at high risk for musculoskeletal disorders due to the nature of their work. The key to preventing work-related musculoskeletal disorders is ergonomics — the science of fitting the work environment to the worker. In dentistry, ergonomics involves the design, adjustment, and modification of operatory layouts, counters, delivery systems, stools, instruments and patient chairs to minimize excessive reaching , twisting, leaning , gripping and repetitive motions. Also, literature has shown more than 65 % of the dentist suffer from musculoskeletal complaints varying in severity but accompanied with pain, discomfort, hindrance in functioning and loss of working time.
