Ergonomics in Dentistry: Work Smarter, Not Harder

Long hours spent leaning over patients can take a serious toll on a dentist’s body, leading to chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain. This informative session, led by Dr. Aaron Stares, a licensed physical therapist based in San Antonio, will provide essential strategies to improve posture, enhance ergonomics, and prevent musculoskeletal disorders commonly experienced in the dental profession.

Dr. Stares specializes in evaluating and treating individuals with injuries or health concerns that impact daily function. He will share practical techniques, including posture correction, therapeutic exercises, and preventive measures to help dental professionals maintain long-term physical well-being. Attendees will gain valuable insights into proper body mechanics, workstation adjustments, and exercises that can improve endurance and reduce strain.
