Several studies have shown that being a dental professional isn’t very good for your health – and especially not for your spine. The problems are caused by long periods spent in tense and twisted positions when performing dental work. When the upper body is bent forward, more pressure is applied to the intervertebral discs compared to when in an upright posture – whether sitting or standing. Given 8 hours of work per day, 5 days of the week, 48 weeks per year and approximately 36 years of employment, this adds up to 69,120 hours of unhealthy working posture.
