What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tooth Wear and Musculoskeletal Disorders evaluationDiagnostic test

    Evaluation of dental wear by BEWE (Basic Erosive Wear Examination: score 0-3) examination and Musculoskeletal disorders are listed by the "NORDIC" questionnaire developed by Kuorinka et al. (2001)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Presence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs)

    "Nordique Questionnaire": validated self-report questionnaire to evaluate musculo skeletal health, particularly MSD on 9 different zones

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Tooth wear following BEWE index

    Clinical examination will give a global score on 18 following Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) index.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Life habits and stress

    10-points likert scale self-report questionnaire

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year
