It was found that, the presence of F- ions in an artificial saliva solution at pH 7.1 increases the corrodibility of different types of dental amalgam. Sever pitting corrosio n occurred at level of 100 mM F- ions. The formulation of amalgam alloys greatly affect the resistance to pitting corrosion; the resistance of the amalgam to pitting follows the order: Dispersalloy >> Phasealloy > Orally > Tytin > Valiant - pH.D. It is recommcded to avoid oral treatment involving high F- ions concentration in the PRESENCE OF AMALGAM RESTORATIONS  ISSN : 0  Journal Name : Egyptian dental journal  Volume : 40  Issue Number : 1  Publishing Year : 1994 AH 1994 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Monday, December 10, 2007  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email عصام نجيب Najeeb, esam Investigator Doctorate enajeeb@kau.edu.sa Files File Name Type Description  ROLE OF FLUORIDE ON CORRODABILITY.pdf pdf   Back To Researches Page
