Mercury Vapor Emission from Dental Amalgam

KAI CHIU CHAN 1 and CARL W. SVARE 1

1 College of Dentistry, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52240, USA

The patterns of mercury vapor emission from carved, burnished, and polished surfaces made from four commonly used dental amalgam alloys were determined with the use of a selenium sulfide detection method. Mercury vapor was emitted more intensely from the marginal region; carved and burnished surfaces emitted the same amount. There was a difference in the amounts emitted from the different alloys tested.
