An alloy of mercury, silver, copper, tin and other elements to improve handling characteristics and clinical performance.

DIMENSIONAL CHANGES ON SETTING

It can expand or contract on setting, depends on manipulation. ANSA/ADA spec 1 should not be greater than 20 micro m/cm between 5 mins and 24 hrs.

DENTAL

DIMENSIONAL CHANGES ON SETTING

Expansion or contraction

Typically amalgam shows immediate contraction after packing, followed by a slow expansion, followed by a mild slow contraction. But modern amalgams mixed in mechanical amlgamators exhibit net contraction!

Jablonski, Illustrated

DENTAL

DIMENSIONAL CHANGES ON SETTING

Expansion Or contraction???

6/8/12

Jablonski, Illustrated

DENTAL

DIMENSIONAL CHANGES ON SETTING

Contraction occurs due to:

Low mercury/ alloy ratio High condensation pressure (squeeze Hg out) Longer trituration Smaller size of alloy particles

6/8/12

Jablonski, Illustrated

DENTAL

MOISTURE CONTAMINATION

Moisture contamination of zinc containing amalgam, can causes large expansion, starting after 3-5 days, continues for months. Due to accumlation of H2 gas- Creep occurs. This is DELAYED EXPANSION/ SECONDARY EXPANSION Can go upto 4% vol expansion
6/8/12 Jablonski, Illustrated

DENTAL

Well manipulated amalgam rarely undergoes dimensional changes after 24 hrs.

CREEP

It can cause amalgam to extend out of the cavity margins and make it susceptible to marginal breakdown. Creep rate < 3% - acceptable according to ADA specification no. 1 Low copper alloys 0.8 8% High copper alloys 0.1-1% Creep values below 1%

Its the time dependent strain or deformation that is produced by stress.

TARNISH AND CORROSIONIs it good or bad??

Active corrosion occurs usually on tooth amalgam interface. The marginal gap paves way for electrolytes and classic cell corrosion (crevice corrosion) is set up.

6/8/12

Passivation and protection from further corrosion can occur due to Tarnishing.

TARNISH AND CORROSIONIs it good or bad??

The 2 phase of conventional amalgam is the most electrochemically reactive.

CAVITY PREPARATION

Key principlesPreserve as much sound tooth structure as possible Restoration angle at cavosurface must be 90. or slightly more 0.75 to 2 mm thickness of amalgam is mandatory. Bevelling of gingival cavo surface margin- 20 degrees Unsupported enamel must be removed with hand cutting instruments.

DENTAL

Good condensation technique and force is required to minimize porosity, attain maximum density and to express mercury out

CONDENSATION

Immediately after trituration Condense from centre to periphery using stepping motion (Chapman and Crim 1992) Use a force of 66.7 N (15lb) Use more force for lathe cut than spherical Final condensation over cavosurface margin should be perpendicular to external enamel surface.

BURNISHING

Adapts material to margin Enhances homogeneity Its controversial, its makes the restoration much smoother than carved surface, and its more desirable in high copper amalgams. But, Burnishing low Cu Amalgam, damages the margins Do not apply undue pressure and heat production >60. c releases Hg at margins.

DENTAL

Small fractures of excessive amalgam on the occlusal surface resulting in (catch toward restoration) could frequently be demonstrate recorded at the margins of the lathe-cut amalgam restorations.

SPHERICAL VS LATHE CUT ALLOY

Surface of amalgam next to next to cavity walls exhibited relatively uneven texture for Spherical alloys. Therefore, interfacial gap filled with pulpal fluid is higher in spherical alloys.
