Abstract

Dental professionals are susceptible to a number of occupational hazards. These include exposure to infections, percutaneous exposure incidents, hazardous dental materials, radiation, and noise; musculoskeletal disorders; psychological problems and dermatitis; respiratory disorders; and eye insults. This article discusses selected occupational hazards. Once identified and recognized as a risk, new guidelines, precautions and protocols are rapidly instituted to greatly reduce or even eliminate the occupational hazard.

Key Words: Dental staff, Dentist, Occupational disease
