Abstract

The first form of silver mercury mixture was given by M Taveau in 1826 at Paris. Since 1850, dental amalgam has been used more than any other restorative material. The dental amalgam alloys consist of silver and other alloys like tin, copper and smaller amounts of zinc which are mixed with mercury.
