Abstract / Excerpt:

“The activity of the dentists generates nuisances due, for instance, to the use of biocontaminating aerosols and the emission of waste containing mercury. These two points are thoroughly reviewed in order to raise risk-awareness. As first and main victims of these nuisances, dentists must learn preventive methods and how to implement them. Anti-polluting methods are explained which are effective and easy to apply though sometimes not very well know and IDF recommendations are recalled.”
