Description
Mahsa Eshrati and co-authors adapt a clinical guide for handling amalgam waste in dental clinics in Iran. Amalgam fillings leave mercury waste, and mercury travels far, builds up in food chains, and harms health. Iran lacked one full, joined guide for the task, as their 2024 study notes.
The team searched guides from developed countries, pulled their advice, and reshaped it for local gear and conditions. Experts then voted on each point through a formal consensus method. The final guide holds 34 recommendations in five areas. They span scrap handling, clinic equipment, pulled teeth with fillings, capsules, and the placing and swapping of fillings. The authors urge clinics to adopt it.
