What is Understanding Dental Amalgam Properties about?
Dental amalgam is an alloy of mercury and powdered metals like silver, tin, and copper, used as a restorative material in dentistry. Traditional amalgams face issues such as low strength, excessive creep, and corrosion, leading to the development of high copper content amalgams that improve strength and reduce corrosion. Despite their advantages, dental amalgams have limitations including poor aesthetics, mercury toxicity, and a limited lifespan.
