Whilst it is easy to visualise how an accident at work may result in a life limiting illness many work related injuries occur whilst sat in an office chair \u2013 or dental stool. These injuries may occur over a longer period of time, but the effects can be just as devastating. The key to preventing musculoskeletal disorders is good ergonomics.<\/p>\n<p>For long enough we have discussed the importance of surgery ergonomics with a focus on the treatment centre and surgery design. Over the past 10 years dentists have become more aware of the benefits of using a dental microscope to improve ergonomics. For some dentists this is their main motivation for investing in a microscope. <\/p>\n<p>Using a microscope encourages optimal working posture and ergonomics which are fundamental to your long term health and wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p>Recent advancements in three dimensional technologies have been adopted by Seiler and integrated into their latest microscope \u2013 PromiseVision3D. PromiseVision 3D Imaging Technology eliminates binocular eyepieces and replaces them with a completely natural, intuitive three dimensional image with no loss of magnification, clarity and illumination. <\/p>\n<p>PromiseVision 3D gives you more by eliminating the challenges associated with binocular eyepieces:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\tFreedom of movement and less fatigue<br \/>\n\u2022\tErgonomically correct posture independent of the instrument<br \/>\n\u2022\tRestored peripheral vision for improved productivity<br \/>\n\u2022\tUnprecedented depth of field (30mm) almost eliminates the need for fine focus adjustment<br \/>\n\u2022\tIntuitive 3D image with no learning curve<br \/>\n\u2022\tNormal depth perception comparable to a direct view<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dentists are at high risk of musculoskeletal injuries due to the nature of their work.
