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. Keywords: Side delivery, rear delivery, split-unit delivery, transthorax delivery, ergonomics Citation: Finkbeiner BL. Selecting Equipment For The Ergonomic Four-Handed Dental Practice. J Contemp Dent Pract 2001 Nov;(2)4: 044-052. |
