Care about the professional health of dentists and master the correct operating posture.
What is the Pd position?
The full name of the Pd position is Proprioceptive Derivation position, which is four-hand operation.
The principle of the Pd operation position is to induce the unbalanced part to return to the original optimal posture through the fixed sense of human body, so that all parts of the human body are in the most natural and comfortable state. Compared with the traditional doctor's "bending, bending back, twisting neck" posture, doctors and nurses in the Pd position always maintain sitting position operation. The doctor's chair can be adjusted in height, and the back of the chair can support the waist, so that the doctor can get proper lumbar support. In this posture, the doctor's hands can move up and down flexibly without moving the shoulders.
The risks of bad posture of dentists cannot be ignored
Dentists are busy between lips and teeth every day. They are "tooth repairers" and "tooth artists". In the eyes of patients, dentists are "glamorous", but in fact they endure a lot of pain behind the scenes. According to the survey, bad posture of dentists at work or maintaining a posture for a long time is the main factor leading to occupational diseases. Long-term passive posture leads to multiple musculoskeletal injuries in the body of dentists, mainly concentrated in the shoulders, neck, waist, back, wrists, etc., and the pain classification is mainly concentrated in mild to moderate.
The risk of occupational diseases among dentists cannot be ignored. Dentists should maintain a good posture when working. The Pd position can minimize the impact of occupational factors on their shoulders, necks, lumbar spine, etc. They should exercise more after work, and seek medical treatment in a timely manner if their condition is serious. At the same time, society should pay attention to the problem of occupational diseases among dentists, provide them with more support, and enable dentists to work in a relatively safe environment.
