Microstructure of Dental Amalgam

FERNE C. ALLAN 1, KAMAL ASGAR 1, and F. A. PEYTON 1

1 University of Michigan, School of Dentistry, Ann Arbor, Michigan

By the method outlined, amalgam can be polished with the retention of all the phases. Furthermore, the recommended iodine etch will show, with good contrast, all the phases.

The gray etch-resistant areas have been shown by probe results to consist of Cu and Sn. Also the dark gray areas appearing in the aged amalgam are predominantly Sn. The uacgr2 areas, assumed to be a Sn-Hg phase, have been shown to be a mixture of Sn-Hg and Cu-Hg phases.
