Abstract:
Objective For more than 150 years, dental amalgam fillings (50% metallic mercury (Hg0) by weight) have been used in American dentistry. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) acknowledged that amalgams release Hg vapor that may be harmful to certain patients. This study examined the impact of Hg vapor exposure from amalgams in American adults. Methods Amalgam-Hg vapor exposure among 158,274,824 weighted-adult Americans was examined in the 2015–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

We determined the exposure to mercury from dental amalgam by comparison of blood levels of mercury before and after removal of all amalgams from ten subjects. Baseline concentrations of mercury in whole blood were measured weekly for four to 18 weeks (median = 6.6 weeks) prior to removal. All amalgams were removed in a single appointment. The subjects had an average of 14 surfaces of amalgam, seven of which were occlusal surfaces. Weekly blood sampling was continued for five to 18 weeks (median=7.6 weeks) after the amalgams were removed. The mean baseline concentration of total mercury in whol

Abstract:
The goal of this presentation is to describe the material as it is used clinically, explain why small quantities of Hg can be released, and suggest ideas for amalgams that do not release mercury. A set amalgam is a dynamic material that undergoes many microstructural changes during clinical use, related to both the elevated temperature and corrosion-prone environment in the mouth and mechanical forces applied to the restoration. Amalgams can be divided roughly into two groups by their copper content: low Cu (traditional) and high Cu. High-Cu amalgams generally perform better clinically, but al

Although the number of research reports on dental composites far outnumbers those on amalgams in recent years, amalgam remains the popular clinical choice for posterior restorations. Recent research on corrosion phenomena, mechanical properties, and new compositions indicates that the useful properties of amalgam may still be improved. Given the current position of amalgam within the dental armamentarium, focused research on the physical chemistry and metallurgy of current and new amalgams may continue to pay dividends.

Abstract The identification of those intermetallic phases which constitute the complex multi-phase system of dental amalgams is rather contradictory in literature. This is intriguing, as the production processes of dental amalgams are standardized since a long time.

The dissolution of mercury, silver, and copper from polished and unpolished surfaces of low- and high-copper amalgams into saline was investigated with respect to time via atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Greater amounts of mercury and silver were released from unpolished than from polished surfaces. Ion release was greatest during the first three hours after trituration of all amalgams. The rate of dissolution of ions from amalgams into saline is considered to be very low once the amalgam has set, and is probably inhibited by the formation of a surface film formed during immersion.

Studies are evaluating the associations of various multi-omic biomarkers, in well-defined pathways with MBD, but the existing methodological approaches have drawbacks. For example, multivariate association analysis adjusting for covariates may identify too many biomarkers and lacks proper biological interpretation. On the other hand, simple amalgams (e.g., combination or sum) of species within pathways may result in few associated pathways, as the species within a pathway could have different dire

Abstract:
Dental amalgam continues to be an important restorative material; both fundamental and applied research should be encouraged. The criteria for replacement of amalgam restorations should be re-examined to determine if the integrity of the margins should continue to receive the dominant research interest. In the studies of mechanical properties, first attempts have been made to apply fracture mechanics analysis to dental amalgam. The heterogeneous structure and time-dependent strain of dental amalgam will have to be considered in future studies. More attention should be given to the effects of z

Recent breakthroughs in materials science and technology have led to improved dental restorative ceramics, metals, and resin-based composites. These breakthroughs have been most important since one of the major controversies during this period has centered on allegations of the physiological risks of mercury released from amalgam restorations. Dental amalgams have been used in the United States since 1832, yet not a single well-documented case of dental patient toxicity to mercury from amalgam restorations has been reported in the scientific literature.A particularly extreme position has been

Dental amalgams have been used by dentists for the restoration of posterior human teeth. However, there have been concerns about the release of mercury from amalgams into the oral cavity. The objective of the present research is to study the effect of titanium (Ti) nanoparticles on the microstructural mechanism of the release of mercury vapor in two commonly used brands of dental amalgam (the Dispersalloy: 11.8% Cu; the Sybralloy: 33% Cu). Ti powder was added to both the Dispersalloy and the Sybralloy in increments of 10 mg up to 80 mg. The addition of Ti powder to both brands of dental amalga

We study the compactness of bounded subsets in a Wiener amalgam whose local and global components are solid Banach function (BF) spaces on a locally compact group. Our main theorem provides a generalization of the corresponding results of Feichtinger.

Two Zn-containing conventional amalgams, their Zn-free counterparts, and three experimental amalgams (SnHg, ZnHg, and SnZnHg) were evaluated by the potentiodynamic polarization technique in 1% NaCl solution. The main difference between the two types of amalgams was found in their respective breakdown potentials at which passivity was destroyed. The breakdown potential of Zn-containing amalgams was about 200 mV more positive than that of the Zn-free amalgams. The improved stab

AbstractCharacterization of four amalgam surfaces, with different alteration degrees from Andalusia historical mirrors, has been carried out by grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD), and other spectroscopic techniques (SEM/EDX, XPS, and REELS). The combination of all these techniques allows determining the corrosion state of the amalgams. The results show that the amalgams are composed in all cases of a binary alloy of tin and mercury. As mercury has high vapour pressure at RT, it slowly segregates and eventually evaporates, it leaves finely divided particles of tin that easily can be ox
