“Triple M†Effect: A Proposed Mechanism to Explain Increased Dental Amalgam Microleakage after Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Radiation
A large body of evidence now indicates that the amount of mercury released from dental amalgam fillings can be significantly accelerated by exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs) such as common mobile phones and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Studies performed on the increased microleakage of dental amalgam restorations after exposure to RF-EMFs have further supported th...
متن کاملIncreased Mercury release due to exposure to electromagnetic radiation as a limiting factor for using dental amalgam
Background: Although it is one of the most toxic nonradioactive elements, mercury is widely used in dental amalgam. Mercury is a toxic element which can damage various organs such as central nervous system, renal, respiratory and hematologic systems. The adverse health impacts associated to exposure to some common sources of electromagnetic fields including laptop computers, mobile phones, ...
متن کاملAssessment of Mercury Exposure and Risks from Dental Amalgam
For Canadians with amalgam-filled teeth, it was estimated that total mercury (Hg) exposure averages: 3.3 µg Hg/day in toddlers (aged 3 to 4 years); 5.6 µg Hg/day in children (aged 5 to 11 years); 6.7 µg Hg/day in teens (aged 12 to 19 years); 9.4 µg Hg/day in adults (aged 20 to 59 years); and 6.8 µg Hg/day in seniors (aged 60+ years). Of this exposure, amalgam was estimated to contribute 50% to ...
متن کاملMercury vapour exposure during dental student training in amalgam removal
BACKGROUND Amalgam that is used for dental fillings contains approximately 50% elemental mercury. During dental student training, amalgam is often removed by drilling without the use of water spray and suction, which are protective measures in preventing mercury aerosol. In this study we measured mercury vapor levels in ambient air during amalgam removal as is typically performed in dental trai...
متن کاملHealth effects of dental amalgam exposure: a retrospective cohort study.
BACKGROUND Whether dental amalgam fillings (containing mercury) are hazardous is a long-standing issue, with few epidemiological investigations. Allegations have particularly involved nervous system disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and chronic fatigue syndrome. This retrospective cohort study, the largest of its kind, contained people in the New Zealand Defence Force ...
