 Abstract

This MSc thesis describes the development of an ergonomic multifunctional syringe design for the Dutch dentist. The multifunctional syringe (MFS) design proposal, named the CEwave, combines hygiene, comfort and ergonomic support in an unique way. It brings more comfort and ergonomic support for left, as well as right-handed dentists. And accounts for the small (p5), the average (p50) and the big (p95) hand sizes. The CEwave is a syringe designed with dentists for dentist. Combining comfort and ergonomic support and total product symmetric removable grips for different hand sizes, the CEwave minimizes the development of WMSD.
