Health implications of mercury exposure in children
Mercury is a ubiquitous environmental toxin that can produce a wide range of health effects in humans. It is found in three chemical forms: organic, inorganic and elemental (mercury). The sources of exposure are also markedly different for the different forms of mercury. Diet, especially fish and other seafood, is the main source of exposure of the general public to organic mercury. Dental ...

Effect of nanofillers in adhesive and aesthetic properties of dental resin-composites
Nanoscience offers new possibilities for dental restorative materials. The aim of this paper was to evaluate a series of experimental resin-composite formulations, with systematically varied nanofiller-size and shape and high volume-fraction. Two main areas of interest in dental restoratives, adhesion and aesthetics, were investigated. The specific properties examined were elastic and bulk moduli ...

Nanotechnology for dental composites
In dentistry, composites consisting of inorganic fillers such as radiopaque glass, quartz or ceramic particles and an organic resin matrix based on a mixture of dimethacrylates, are used for the restoration of teeth. Important properties of the dental restorative materials can be improved by means of nanotechnology. Inorganic-organic hybrid materials can be used as monomer matrix in dental ...
