Abstract
Background: Upper limb musculoskeletal disorders are a health problem among in dental jobs. The aim of the study was to investigate of upper limb musculoskeletal disorders among dental jobs. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among 190 in dental jobs of in Tehran cities of Iran in 2016. A modified Nordic questionnaire with interview was used to collect data on individual characteristics and musculoskeletal disorders, Univariate analyses and multiple logistic regression analysis were then performed. Results: In this study dental jobs were participated with age (mean ±SD) 33.56±9.33 yrs., duration of employment 10.19 ±8.85. Prevalence rate of reported upper limb musculoskeletal disorders in each body site was 72.4% in previous 12-month. The most prevalent musculoskeletal complaints was neck pain (33.3%). Significant relations were found between occurrence of upper limb musculoskeletal disorders and age, gender, heavy work (P-value<0.05). Conclusion: For important action in reduce Upper limb musculoskeletal disorders, design station works by ergonomics of standards and exercise often work are suggested.
