Musculoskeletal Disorders among Dentists in Bulgaria: Nature and Conducive Factors
Abstract: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are a common problem among dentists in Bulgaria. Both socio-demographic and occupational factors play their role in MSD manifestations. The results reported are based on a survey of 700 dentists in Bulgaria. They evidence that the percentage of females with MDS compared to males is higher. The longer the dental practice is, the higher the share of dentists experiencing such pains.
