Practicing dental professionals are advised to work with equipment designed to address the need for productivity and stress reduction.  Selection of dental equipment for use in an ergonomic, four-handed dentistry practice is integral to the success of the concept.  In order for the dental assistant and dentist to work effectively as a team, they have to work in a safe, ergonomically sound working environment.  This article examines various designs of dental equipment, the advantages and disadvantages of each, as well as identifies the criteria for equipment selection.
