dc.descriptionDental amalgam is a combination of metals, about 50 per cent of mercury in elemental form and the other metals being silver, tin, copper, and other trace metals. It has been used in the last 150 years for dental restoration due to its mechanical properties and the long-term familiarity of dentists with its use.
