Good posture is a key factor in reducing stress and strain. Identifying & reducing stressful positions in the operatory, makes the working day less tedious & the ride home more enjoyable. With practice & time, assuming a more appropriate, balanced posture allows the body to readjust, rebalance & realign to relieve the pain & discomfort that is often accepted as part of practice. This interactive seminar will review criteria for choosing the best operator seating & include a hands-on sitting lab.

Learning Objectives:

Discuss necessary seated supports for proper dental posture and practice
Review options for optimal seating support and function
Trial a variety of seating options
