Hi all. I was wondering if mercury exposure during placement and removal of dental amalgams presents any concerns for practicing dentists and patients? After mixing the amalgam, when it's still pliable, does mercury vapor pose any noticeable health hazards, say, to a dentist who doesn't wear face mask and the patient who breathes in the vapor? Thank you.
