Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are the injuries and disorders affecting muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments, joint cartilage, or spinal disc. They are the most important work-related problems currently reported among dentists.
In standing and sitting positions, the average weight of an adult head is 4.5-5.4kg (9.9-11.9lb). However, when tilted, the load on the neck can reach up to 27kg (59.5lb). This can lead to premature wear and tear of intervertebral discs(1).
Furthermore, working long hours with an unnatural head position exerts extreme pressure on the entire spinal column, which can cause irreparable harm to health over time(1).
In the following diagram, Position 1 depicts the most natural and healthy head position. Conventional loupes do not facilitate working in this position.
