“…A preliminary search of PROSPERO, MEDLINE, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and JBI Evidence Synthesis identified 9 review articles on MSD in oral health professionals published in 2022 and 2023, 9,10,12,13,16,20,[23][24][25] covering a mix of aims and objectives, and often including more than one domain of interest. Of these, 7 reviewed MSD prevalence rates, 2 investigated risk factors associated with MSD, and 3 evaluated MSD interventions.…”

Objective: The objective of this review is to synthesize the evidence on the prevalence, incidence, risk factors, and preventive and management interventions for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) in oral health professionals. Introduction: Oral health professionals face a considerable risk of developing work-related MSD due to the nature of their work. These disorders can lead to loss of employment, reduced job quality, increased occupational injuries, and early retirement. They can also lead to significant financial burdens for employers and society. Inclusion criteria: This umbrella review will include systematic reviews and meta-analyses that have oral health professionals as a population group and address at least one of the following topics: the prevalence or incidence, risk factors, and the efficiency or effectiveness of interventions for the prevention or management of work-related MSD. Methods: A systematic search will be conducted across CINAHL Complete (EBSCOhost), Dentistry and Oral Sciences Source (EBSCOhost), MEDLINE (EBSCOhost), Cochrane Library (OVID), Scopus, PsycINFO (Ovid), AMED Allied and Complementary Medicine (Ovid), Epistemonikos, Ergonomics Abstracts Online (EBSCOhost), and Google Scholar (first 200 articles). The search will be limited to articles published in English, with no restrictions on geographical location. Two independent reviewers will screen the titles and abstracts against the inclusion criteria. The studies will be assessed using the JBI critical appraisal instrument for systematic reviews and research syntheses, and data will be extracted from each study using a modified version of the JBI data extraction tool. The GRADE approach will be used to rate the overall quality and strength of the evidence. Review registration: PROSPERO CRD42023388779

Objective: The concept on which the health care system is based is widely called Pd (proprioceptive derivation) or dp (derivations from proprioception) or “0” (zero) concept, centering on the positions, movements, contacts, and discomfort that we sense within our bodies as both providers and receivers of care. During the 1970s, Pd was used for health care records and skill acquisition, which can be applied anywhere in the world. The goal of this study was to evaluate and compare the impact of dental professionals' work postures on musculoskeletal problems by following Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) and Quick Exposure Check (QEC) while using conventional and proprioceptive derivation methodologies. Methodology: A questionnaire based study on dental clinicians' work postures analysis in dental institute and a symptom survey among dental clinicians working on both conventional and proprioceptive derivation ideas are the primary components of the study. Results: When musculoskeletal diseases among dental surgeons are compared between conventional and Pd work postures, a significant difference are detected. When asked if they felt any physical discomfort when doing oral prophylaxis, almost all of the doctors in Pd position said no. 100% of the clinicians observed that they applied the least force for scaling and polishing in PD posture. Conclusion: Adapting and practicing proprioceptive derived work postures resulted in less discomfort and least possible work-related injuries among dentists.
