Abstract
SUMMARY
1) The effective application of a preventive dental service reguires not only that the dentist possess a knowledge of the reliable methods of prevention, but also that the patient be sufficiently educated to understand and appreciate the effectiveness and value of preventive measures.
2) Amalgam reguires certain variations in cavity preparation to suit its physical properties, particularly from the standpoint of greater bulk for greater strength. Improper cavity preparation contributes to many failures of amalgam restorations.
3) All complex cavities reguire the application of a suitable matrix, and every care should be given to provide for the proper restoration of proximal surfaces.
4) Emphasis is placed upon the importance of proportions, trituration and the method of adaptation and condensation in order to secure the best results with amalgam.
5) The mechanical method of amalgam manipulation warrants careful consideration; however where poper condensers are used with hand pressure and where the principles outlined by Black are carefully followed restorations of permanence may be expected.
