摘要：The aim of this study, which took place in a dental environment located at the centre of Athens, Greece, is to quantify the amount of Total Volatile Compounds (TVOCs), which were emitted from commonly used dental substances in a controlled dental micro-environment (8 surface disinfectants including both sprays and tissues, 8 bonding agents and 4 acrylic substances). TVOCs concentrations were monitored at three distances from the source (right above the source, 50cm and 100 cm distance from the source) for a period of minutes using a ppbRAE monitor. The environmental factors were complementary assessed using a prototype experimental setup consisted of a sonic anemometer and a hygrometer right above the source. Ventilation rates were estimated via CO2 concentrations.
