the nature or working conditions of a particular job.Although
modern dentistry has been described as probably among the least
hazardous of all occupations but still while carrying out their
professional work, dentists are exposed to a number of occupational
hazards. These cause the appearance of various ailments, specific
to the profession, which develop and intensify with years. These
occupational hazards include percutaneous exposure incidents (PEI);
exposure to infectious diseases (including bioaerosols) radiation,
dental material and noise; musculoskeletal disorders, dermatitis
and respiratory disorders; eye injuries and psychological problems.
This book will give a brief overview of various occupational
hazards in dentistry, their adverse effects and methods of
