Abstract
- This article discusses advancements in dental restorative materials and their implications for patient care. The use of dental amalgam, which has been popular due to its durability, is being questioned due to concerns about its biocompatibility. As a result, alternative materials such as resin-based composites, glass ionomer cement (GICs), and ceramic materials have gained popularity. Each material has its advantages and limitations, and dental professionals should consider factors such as the patient's oral health status and preferences when selecting the most suitable material. The article emphasizes the importance of personalized care and patient-centered discussions to ensure satisfaction and long-term oral health. [Extracted from the article]
