Differences in plantar pressure by REBA scores in dental hygienists

ConclusionsMost of the dental hygienists in this study showed poor posture during working. Subjects with poor posture at a level requiring intervention showed differences in plantar pressure between the right and left feet. Inappropriate posture can cause musculoskeletal disorders. Therefore, it will be necessary to prepare internal and external measures to maintain proper working posture in dental hygienists, including education, exercise, improvement of the working environment, and improvement of ergonomic equipment and devices.This article is protected by copyright.
