Sumario:This systematic review was undertaken to assess neck and back pain in dental practitioners. Published articles from 2015 onwards were explored in search engines of Pubmed, Medline, Scopus and Journal of web for outcomes of neck and back pain in dental practitioners. A total of 13 articles were reviewed, after carefully considering the eligibility criteria. The prevalence of neck and back pain was considerably higher, with neck pain occurrence ranging from 13.02% to 84.6% and back pain observed in 15.7% - 88.9% of reviewed studies. A higher prevalence of musculoskeletal pain was observed stressing appropriate interventional measures to reduce the same.
