Popis: |
Dental cavities were prepared and restored with amalgam, using three different silver alloys. The surface of the restorations was finished 24 hours after condensation, with a rotatory instrument using a low- or high-speed handpiece. The specimens were then submitted to metallographic polishing and one of the margins of the amalgam restoration were then submitted to Vickers' micro-hardness test. Another micro-hardness test was accomplished 168 hours after condensation and the two sets of micro-hardness values were compared. No significant statistical differences were detected between the micro-hardness values obtained with low or high speed in the polishing technique. |
