Description
1. Introduction An amalgam is an alloy of Mercury and one or more other metals. The amalgam alloy is a combination of solid metals containing mainly particles of silver, tin and copper [1]. Other particles, which are sometimes included, are zinc, palladium, indium and selenium. Dental amalgam is made by mixing liquid mercury with powdered amalgam alloys in a process called "trituration". Trituration of commercial amalgam alloys produces a plastic mass (the "amalgam") that the dentist places in a cavity preparation [2].
