Don't be afraid to use this in your practice in the future. Composite fillings are king now these days but make sure you invest in high quality composite fillings. Too many dentists out there using very cheap composite fillings. Most composite tubes cost $30 per 5 grams. While an average filling, without insurance cost $150-250 for a one or two surface. Depends on practice....

For this cavity preparation (and most of this size and configuration), we use the 245 for most of the time. However, when caries are being excavated we often use a large round bur in a slow-speed handpiece to remove the carious dentin safely and effectively.

All dentists will agree - amalgam fillings are actually the most durable type of filling. I used to see amalgam fillings on patients that had been on their teeth since the late 80s. Composite has been around since the early 90s . Amalgam is still very much used in the US and in many parts of world. Amalgam really is best for small fillings but on molars, I've seen amalgam fillings take up almost 75% of the tooth and lasted for awhile but had enamel grinded down that eventually had to be replaced with a crown.

@YoungLatinist 8 ай бұрын

I wish Italian dentists used amalgams large scale! 90% uses white composites here, which is both weak (I have to swap them every 4/5 years) and expensive. My mother on the other hand has old amalgams and they are still intact since the 1990s.

how do you smoothen walls without removing tooth structure. this is my biggest flaw right now and it frustrates the heck out of me. i can line up my pits and establish the initial pattern and when i smooth my walls i widen my prep. how can i avoid this?

@mentaldental 3 жыл бұрын

Are you talking about with an initial prep bur, like a 245 carbide or diamond? That was one of the most frustrating parts for me as a student, especially on typodont teeth. The key is having a very steady hand when smoothing so you direct the bur *along* the walls you've already prepped rather than *gouging* into them and removing more tooth structure. I often would use my other hand to help steady my dominant hand when doing this part. This is something that you do get better at with time and practice. Keep at it!

The minimal mercury released from amalgam (mainly during initial placement and removal) has not been shown to cause any adverse health effects. There is no need to worry, amalgam is a safe material that has been used for many decades.
