Ergonomics is all about the environment within which one works and how that person can complete tasks within it. The tools used by employees to carry out their job requirements are considered in the study of ergonomics as well. The importance of ergonomics in the workplace lies in each employee's ability to work within a space that is ideal for them to do their jobs well.Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD's) are disorders of the muscles, tendons, peripheral nerves or vascular system not directly resulting from an acute or instantaneous event (e.g., slips or falls). Dental professionals often develop musculoskeletal problems, which are related to sub-optimal work-environment ergonomics that might be responsible for improper sitting postures and movements causing unnecessary musculoskeletal loading, discomfort, and fatigue. This review article introduces some of the key concepts and practical aspects of musculoskeletal disorders in dental personnel.
