Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Four types of fluoridated amalgam were assessed in vitro in terms of fluoride release, corrosion behaviour and compressive strength, and compared with amalgams prepared from the corresponding non-fluoridated alloys. Although corrosion susceptibility was found to be increased, steady release of the fluoride ion was demonstrated over a 16-week period, indicating that fluoridated amalgams might be prophylactically employed in clinical dentistry as a means of overcoming the problem of secondary caries associated with amalgam restorations.
