• If an amalgam is knocked off but not caught in the instrument, it becomes difficult to find it later, causing contamination inside or outside of the patient’s mouth. 

• A tray pick-up tool must never be used for any other purpose than to transfer silver alloy materials, which will result in intermixing of various metals and subsequent contamination. 

• Potential dental accidents include needle sticks from sharp instruments that may transmit pathogens through a needle stick injury or aerosolized particles that can be inhaled and lead to respiratory infections. Hazards also include dangers from electrical hazards such as electric shock and arc flash hazards.
