We created the ErgoFlex® to support hygienists faced with work-related MSDs
Clinicians with MSDs experience up to double the discomfort and fatigue, and use up to three times as much muscle work during instrumentation compared to their healthy colleagues*.
Scientific research shows that clinicians with MSDs do better with ErgoFlex®
one third of the discomfort* when clinicians with MSDs use ErgoFlex®
less than half the muscle work* when clinicians with MSDs use ErgoFlex®
half the fatigue* with ErgoFlex® when clinicians with MSDs use ErgoFlex®
* using the ErgoFlex® vs a traditional rigid instrument.
