So I am about to start dental school pretty soon, and after my volunteer experience with dentists and oral surgeons, I realized that I might develop back problems at a relatively early age. In fact, I already have a back that has sustained an injury at the gym when I was doing squats. So my questions are addressed to dental students and dentists, especially those who entered dental school with minor back problems.
Is there a way to do dentistry without putting strain on the lower back? What is it?
Are there particular ways to adjust the chair to minimize back strain?
Are there special chairs for those who have back problems and can these chairs be ordered by students? I dont mind paying a high price for it. If its there, Ill get it
Thank you for the feedback
