Abstract:
The correct working posture of dentists is not only the premise of clinical diagnosis, treatment quality and safety but also an important guarantee for the occupational health of dentists. Presently, research on the working posture of dental professionals and related influencing factors is relatively mature internationally. Still, the dental curriculums in our country have not systematically introduced theoretical knowledge and standards related to working posture. This review analyzes and summarizes previous literature on the importance of dental working posture, criteria, assessment methods, and influencing factors, in hopes of providing references and theoretical supports for future guidelines and standards.
