| Abstract: | Background: Dentistry is a physically demanding profession, due to the number of dental procedures involved. Hence, neck pain and musculoskeletal disorders, a common symptom among dental professionals, can be affected by several factors, such as ergonomically inappropriate positions and extended work hours. Materials and methods: This study was conducted among 75 dentalstudents, dental practitioners and dental faculties. The study was conducted in Saveetha DentalCollege and Hospitals, SaveethaUniversity. Study was conducted using pretested questionnaires.Thequestionnaire consisted of 15 questions enquiring about the demographic data and further questions about the neck pain. Results: The present research work reveals that over 76% of the participants complained of neck pain. The clinical areas where more pain was found were 54% in endodontics followed by 20% in surgical procedures and 15% in orthodontic procedures, Steps taken to relieve the neck pain 55% of the participants replied that they would take medication ,32% of them massage the area while 13% of them said they underwent acupuncture treatment for relieving the neck pain. Conclusion: All dentists regardless of their dental specialties, are recommended to apply principles of ergonomics in their daily practice. Moreover, dental ergonomics should be taught to undergraduate students and strictly implemented in the clinics to provide comfortable working environment for all dental professionals. |
