  100% CONFIDENTIAL SERVICE Dental Mercury Screening

  ADA Recommended Mercury Screening

  With public concerns related to mercury becoming more common, it is essential to have a partner that you can trust with your mercury compliance needs.

  Although it is unusual, if we identify mercury in excess of acceptable levels, we will provide you with a free and completely confidential consultation regarding the available options for removal and decontamination.

  We use several affordable, safe, and scientifically proven methods to lower mercury vapor to acceptable levels.

  Once your mercury levels are below the NIOSH (REL) recommended exposure limit, we will provide you with a “NIOSH Mercury Compliant” certificate.

  Your data will be held in strict confidence and only released with your written consent.

  Our knowledge, experience, and the use of state of the art mercury screening equipment to certify that your dental office is compliant with the NIOSH exposure limit for mercury. After your office has been screened with the Mercury Tracker 3000, which utilizes cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry, the only EPA validated technique for mercury vapor analysis; one of our certified mercury analysts will review your data and provide you with a comprehensive data report. If mercury levels are below the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health’s exposure limit of 50 μg/m3 averaged over an eight-hour work shift, over a 40-hour work week, you will receive a “NIOSH Mercury Compliant” certificate.
