I work in an older dental office where all operatories (hygiene & dentist) have the rear delivery system. Thank you so much for discussing this. I absolutely have gotten into bad ergonomic habits by reaching & twisting, as I'm right handed, to grab instruments. This is exactly what has led to my right side mid back pain. Also, very challenging, if not impossible, to get into the 12o'clock or 1'oclock positions. I appreciated your suggestions. The operatory I am in is small, but I will certainly try to rotate the patient chair. Also loved the ideas of getting a seperate roll cart in the operatory to put the instrument cassette on. Or picking up the needed instrument, etc with my left hand & passing to my right (I had started doing that this last week). Thank you for this course. I wanted to take your virtual CE class via CDHA, but completely forgot to register for it.
