Abstract

De Quervain's disease affects in numerous works tasks or activities incluiding dentistry, in which we daily and repetitively use the finger's tweezer like when holding or manipulating our dental instruments or materials between the thumb and the index finger. The wrist's repetitive movements during our clinical work must be taken into consideration when we talk about this syndrome.
