Neck pain and endurance capacity of deep cervical flexor muscles in dental students: a cross-sectional analysis

Key Points

• Cervical muscle endurance varies significantly with age, gender, and academic year among students.
• Findings indicate notable differences in neck pain-related disability linked to these factors.
• Cross-sectional analysis across dental students highlights existing differences in musculoskeletal health.
• Implications suggest that understanding these variables may improve health strategies for students.
