Inspite of the efforts made through Ergonomics, the work of dentists had not been eased to fullest. The objective of present study was to introduce the chest rest to ease the work of dentists and thereby decrease musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in dentists. This experiment was conducted on dentists during their working time by studying the postures of dentists using different positions.
