Abstract:
Ergonomics is an applied science concerned with the design of products that improve the way in which people and technology interface. The applications to dentistry are numerous given the fact that modern dental care is a complex blend of human skills and sophisticated technology. This article explores the impact of ergonomic principles on dental care for the special and physically challenged patient.
