Abstract

Dentists are at risk in terms of pain, because of usually hold on particular position, use of highly precision instruments and make repetitive movements in narrow field of study. As well as pain in the musculoskeletal system, dentist could be encountered with restlessness. Avoidance of postural deficiencies, as well as subsequent pathological changes, such as muscle imbalances, muscle necrosis and spinal disk degeneration could be prevented assuring the application of ergonomics in dentistry. Exercises in accordance with advice of a physician should be done daily, the spaces between appointments and small breaks into the treatment session. Dentists could mantain their profession successfully and healthily long time carrying out regular excersize program, accurate posture and postioning strategies

Özet

Diş hekimlerinin dar bir çalışma alanında tekrarlayıcı hareketlerde bulunmaları, yüksek hassasiyete sahip aletler kullanmaları ve sürekli belli bir pozisyonda durmaları nedeniyle ağrı açısından risk altındadır. Kas iskelet sisteminde görülen ağrıların yanı sıra sebepsiz yorgunluk, uyku bozuklukları, huzursuzluk gibi durumlara da rastlanılmaktadır. Diş hekimliğinde ergonomi tekniklerinin uygulanmasıyla, postural bozukluklar önlenerek; kas dengesizlikleri, kas nekrozları ve omurga disk dejenerasyonu gibi patolojik değişikliklerin ortaya çıkması engellenebilir. Ayrıca, çalışma alanının doğru şekilde düzenlenmesi ile de bu patolojik durumlar önlenebilir. Düzenli egzersiz programlarının, doğru postür ve pozisyon stratejilerinin uygulanması, uygun çalışma alanı düzeninin oluşturulması ile diş hekimi mesleğini uzun yıllar başarılı ve sağlıklı bir şekilde sürdürülebilir.
