## Abstract The polarization resistance and anodic polarization curves of three amalgam types were determined in saline solution. Corrosion currents were determined by extrapolation of anodic Tafel slopes. A good correlation was found between corrosion currents and reciprocal polarization resistanc
## Abstract The wear of dental amalgam was studied by singleβ and doubleβpass sliding and by a silicon carbide abrasion test. A dispersed amalgam showed significantly better resistance to twoβbody abrasion than the spherical amalgams tested. The wear of amalgam was determined by resistance to penet
The use of dental amalgam as a restorative material has long been a contentious issue because of its elemental mercury component. While microleakage of mercury from amalgam has been conclusively confirmed over the past 30 years intensive research has failed to identify deleterious health outcomes. M
