AR-SA In order to evaluate occupational health in
dentists of Tehran, 250 dentists ( 60f/190m) were selected. The results of our
survey showed significant hearing loss in both ears of all the dentists mostly
in 6 ghz frequencies. Urine analysis showed higher mercury levels in general
practitioners than specialists Although this was not statistically significant.
The majority of dentists refused to reply questions about occupational
diseases. Only the younger generation of them with working experience of 5-9
years replied to all the questions of questionnaire.
