About the course
Nearly 70% of dental hygienists report experiencing back, neck, hand, and wrist pain, while 60% do not work until reaching retirement age. It is time to make a definitive change in this situation! This course enables you to work comfortably and efficiently around the dental chair all day long. Cleaning the mouth and removing subgingival calculus from deep pockets is challenging enough. However, if you also adopt an incorrect working position at the chair, you will be unable to utilize your instruments optimally and efficiently during dental treatments. Moreover, an improper posture can lead to physical discomfort such as back, neck, wrist, and hand problems.
