Background: Dentistry is a highly skilled profession, requires high concentration within a confined working environment, which requires different postural variations. Ergonomics is an applied science concerned with designing products and procedures for maximum efficiency and safety in dental practice. Aim: To assess the awareness of dentists towards ergonomics. Materials and methods: The present study was conducted among dentists of Dhule city which is cross-sectional, Maharashtra, India. A structured, self-administered questionnaire consisting of 19 closed-ended and one opened ended questions was administered to 135 dentists out of whom 109 responded. Out of 109 dentists, 33 were MDS. Thirty-eight were BDS and 38 were postgraduate students (PG). PG students were selected from the dental institute. The collected data were tabulated and subjected to analysis using appropriate statistical tests. Result: Though there was statistically no significant difference regarding awareness of ergonomics in between MDS, BDS and PG students, it was seen that there was awareness present among dentists, but its incorporation in their practice was lacking. Several disorders like musculoskeletal disorders have been seen till date because of improper ergonomics. Conclusion: Present study concludes that the majority of the dentists were having the knowledge and positive attitude towards ergonomics, but there was a lack of positive behavior towards it. It's a need of the hour to implement ergonomics strongly in the day to day life. Spreading awareness regarding ergonomics is necessary.
