Dental amalgam controversy (unlike composites), and is often about 20-30% less expensive. "Consumer Reports" has suggested that many who claim dental amalgam is not safe are "prospecting for disease" and using pseudoscience to scare patients into more lucrative treatment options. Those opposed to amalgam use suggest that modern composites are improving in strength. In addition to their claims of possible health and ethical issues, opponents of dental amalgam fillings claim amalgam fillings contribute to mercury contamination of the environment. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that health care facilities, including dental offices, account for as much as 5% of total waste water mercury
Organosilver chemistry η-alkene complex. Silver is also present in other carbon-carbon bond skeletal rearrangements such as the quadricyclane to norbornadiene rearrangement, the cubane to cuneane rearrangement and the rearrangement of the cyclobutadiene dimer to cyclooctatetraene. Organosilver chemistry Organosilver chemistry in chemistry is the study of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to silver chemical bond and the study of silver as catalyst in organic reactions. In the group 11 elements silver is the element below copper. The chemistries have much in common but organosilver catalysis is much less common (mostly academic study) than organocopper chemistry due both to the relatively high price of
