What is "amalgam"?
Amalgam is a type of dental filling material made from a mixture of metals, including mercury, silver, tin, and copper. It is used to restore teeth that are damaged or have cavities, providing a strong and long-lasting filling. Amalgam has been used in dentistry for over a century due to its strength and durability, though it is less commonly used today because tooth-colored materials are preferred by patients.
Example
Dental amalgam, often silver in appearance, is a common cavity-filling material.
L'amalgama dentale, spesso di aspetto argentato, è un comune materiale per riempimento delle cavità.
The dentist recommended an amalgam filling for the cavity in my tooth.
