Uzrok su specifični radni uvjeti – radno polje je malo i nalazi se u ustima pacijenta, rukuje se mnogobrojnim oštrim instrumentima i svrdlima koja se okreću velikom brzinom, što uz vodeno hlađenje stvara aerosol kontaminiranu mnoštvom čestica sline i krvi.

Svrha rada: Svrha ovog rada bila je istražiti učestalost ozljeda stomatologa na radu u Hrvatskoj, koje su ozljede najčešće te ustanoviti rizične čimbenike za njihov nastanak (spol, dob, specijalizacija, godine staža). Jedan od ciljeva istraživanja bio je i doznati mišljenje stomatologa o uzročnicima odgovornima za nastanak profesionalnih bolesti i ozljede na radu. Materijal i metode: Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 406 stomatologa u Hrvatskoj koji su odgovorili na pitanja postavljena u elektroničkoj anketi. Rezultati: Ozljedu koja je nastala tijekom obavljanja stomatološke djelatnosti imalo je 63,05 % ispitanika, a 16,5 % zbog je toga potražilo pomoć liječnika. Među ozljedama su najzastupljeniji bili ubodni incidenti iglom (57,75 %) te porezotine (20,86 %), slijede ozljede oka (13,37 %), ugriz pacijenta (4,81 %) pa udarac (1,60 %). Kao najvažniji uzročnik profesionalnih bolesti i ozljeda najviše ispitanika navelo je nepravilan položaj tijela pri radu, a slijede stres, infekcija i buka. Zaključak: Poznavanje rizičnih čimbenika najvažnije je u prevenciji ozljeda, stoga možemo zaključiti da su naši ispitanici velikim dijelom bili svjesni opasnosti koje ih okružuju. Unatoč tomu učestalost ozljeda bila je velika pa su i dalje potrebne preventivne mjere kao bi se ozljede svele na najmanju moguću razinu. Objectives: Dental profession is characterized by a high risk of injuries at work due to exposure to specific working conditions. The operating area in a patient’s mouth is small, and it is handled by a large number of sharp instruments and drills that rotate at high speed, which creates an aerosol contaminated with particles of saliva and blood. This poses a risk of transmitting infections from patients to the dentist through stabbing incidents and cuts, which are some of the most common occupational injuries that are reported in the scientific literature. Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the frequency of occupational injuries among dentists in Croatia, to establish most common injuries, and to determine the main risk factors. The aim of this research was also to determine the dentists’ opinion on causes that are responsible for the occupational diseases and injuries. Material and methods: The survey was conducted based on a sample of 406 dentists from Croatia as respondents to an electronic survey. Results: 63.05% of the respondents suffered injuries caused by dental practitioners. The most common injuries were needle puncture incidents (57.75%) and cuts (20.86%), followed by eye injuries (13.37%), patient bite (4.81%) and punches (1.60%). The largest number of respondents stated the improper posture as the most important cause of occupational diseases and injuries, followed by stress, infection and noise. Conclusion: knowledge of risk factors is the first step of injury prevention. Our respondents were largely aware of the dangers surrounding them. Nevertheless, the frequency of injuries was high and there is still a need for preventive measures to minimize the frequency of injuries in dentistry.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to present the content and results of its implementation and to analyse them with emphasis on the sustainability and inclusion of the program and its implementation in preventive activities and procedures. Material and Methods: The data were collected from the completed “Dental Passport” forms from September 2017 to August 2018. The dental examinations and diagnostic-therapeutic procedures were recorded in The Central Health Information System of Croatia. Results: In the school year 2017/2018, 24,729 6th grade elementary school tudents visited a dentist. The response rate in the Republic of Croatia was 68%. According to the CEZIH data, in the period from September 1 to December 31 2017, an increase in the number of first examinations and diagnostic-therapeutic procedures was observed in children aged 12 years, compared to the same peri-od in 2015. The least reported preventive procedures in preschool children and 6th grade students were fissure sealing and sealing restorations, while motivating and instructing children on oral hygiene were the most common reported procedures. Conclusion: Good organization of work in school medicine pro-vides the basis for the implementation of dental programs involving schoolchildren. However, greater motivation of the dental health care provider in the implementation of preventive procedures and motivation of parents and patients for a more active involvement in the “Dental Passport” program are important determinants in further implementation and improvement of oral health in children.

Godine kod djece u dobi od 12 godina zabilježeno je povećanje broja prvih pregleda i dijagnostičko-terapijskih postupaka u odnosu prema istom razdoblju 2015.

Razreda bili su pečaćenje fisura po zubu i pečatni ispuni, a demonstracija čišćenja usta i motiviranje djece na higijenu usta bili su najčešći. Zaključak: Dobra organizacija rada u djelatnosti školske medicine daje osnovu za provedbu dentalnih programa u koje se uključuje školsku djecu, ali su također veća motiviranost pružatelja dentalne zdravstvene zaštite u provedbi preventivnih postupaka te motiviranost roditelja i pacijena-ta za aktivnije uključivanje u program Zubna putovnica, važne odrednice u daljnjoj provedbi i poboljšanju dentalnog zdravlja djece.
