‘Back to Basics’: A Self‐Administered Survey of Undergraduate Dentists' Prevalence, Impact and Understanding of Lower Back Pain
This research has revealed a belief system that may have negative influences on dental professionals' lower back health. Dental professionals may lack education on musculoskeletal disorders and have a poor understanding of the prevention and management of LBP. The results have informed the development of a LBP module aiming to improve undergraduate awareness and positively impact future working life.
