Abstract
The purpose of this review article was to compile occupational hazards related to dentistry. Professional risk factors in dentistry may harm dentists and their team. Despite numerous technical advances in recent years, many occupational health problems still persist in modern dentistry. These include exposure to infectious diseases, radiation, dental materials, and noise; musculoskeletal disorders; dermatitis and respiratory disorders; eye injuries; and psychological problems. It is essential for an orthodontist to recognize these risk factors and protect against them. The scientific and clinical literature on occupational hazards in orthodontics is reviewed to identify and recognize the risks, new guidelines, precautions and protocols are rapidly instituted to greatly reduce or even eliminate the occupational hazard.
