Amalgam Simplified Preparation - Columbia #4 DO | Two Burs Only

Dental amalgam is a metal restorative made of mercury mixed with a silver-tin-copper alloy. To restore the tooth's form and function, the unset mixture is pushed (condensed) into a specially made undercut tooth form. The tooth is restored with a silver-colored restoration and becomes functional again when the material hardens. In this video, Dr. Richard Stevenson demonstrates about Amalgam Simplified Preparation - Columbia #4 DO.

[@rockfellerndb]

Very nice prep... Would love to be my mentor then. But isn't amalgam an obselete material?

[@StevensonDentalSolutions]

Amalgam is almost obsolete, but the preparation design is still used for teaching purposes.

[@selvarajnatarajan6168]

Really nice doctor

[@StevensonDentalSolutions]

Happy to share.

[@kalebhaley1498]

When you use the slow speed and round your walls so nicely, what speed are you at?

[@StevensonDentalSolutions]

for electric, about 2000 rpm.

[@gardenialover7583]

Thank you for sharing these valuable videos; I really appreciate your work. I have a question regarding the depth in the dovetail area. When you increased the depth in this area to enhance the pulpal depth, the pulpal floor is no longer flat and on one plane, correct? Is this acceptable practice? Additionally, when measuring the pulpal depth, should our reference point be the center of the tooth or the depth of the dovetail in the preparation?

[@StevensonDentalSolutions]

A flat pulpal wall will cause you to have variable heights on the occlusal vertical walls. This is the norm for an ideal prep. For amalgam, this is important, as it improves resistance form. The deepening of the pulpal near the dove tail was to accomplish a minimum pulpal depth of 1.5 mm, and a flat pulpal wall. Hope this helps! Dr. S

[@1smail.khaled]

why the dovetail is extended facially only ?

[@StevensonDentalSolutions]

No need to extend it lingually - plenty of retention

[@parejasinfronteras8704]

Does anyone have the link for the enamel hatchet? Thanks in advance

[@StevensonDentalSolutions]

[@Adi-jj5ih]

Dear Dr. Stevenson, When I'm try to blend the box with the occlusal outline, that junction looks very conspicuous ( with 245). How do I make the walls of the box and everything look like in one finish? I only use the hatchet to make box walls and it doesn't look as shiny as bur run surfaces. Also, I have noticed that right after blending at that point my axial wall goes concave. Could you please share how to correct it? I'm usually at 1.3 or 1.4mm in width at the axial trying to accomodate a 1.5 mm hatchet. (Practicing with a constraint of the hand instrument provided) Thank you so much. Best, Adi
