Occupational injuries to dental personnel.

K Porter1, C Scully, Y Theyer, S Porter.   

Abstract

Occupational injuries to dental hospital personnel over 9 years (1980-1988 inclusive) were studied. Some 300 accidents were reported. Over one-half were sharps injuries. Over one-quarter were falls or collisions. Eye injuries accounted for some 10 per cent of incidents, burns and scalds the remainder. Serious complications were rare, but many of the injuries could have been avoided.
