Article Synopsis
- In 2017, Europe banned the use of amalgam fillings for children under 15 and pregnant/breastfeeding women, creating a demand for better alternative materials.
- This study tested the surface roughness of five different amalgam-replacement materials using six finishing techniques across three time points, involving 960 samples made from 3D-printed molds.
- Results showed that conventional and hybrid glass-ionomer cements had smoother surfaces than high-viscosity alternatives, with some materials demonstrating stable roughness over time, emphasizing the need for careful selection of finishing methods.
