The influence of polishing on the electric potential of amalgam fillings

SUMMARY. - For the purpose of this study we used Electronic-endodent iastnsmcat EED-11 to measure the height of electric potential ofgioghv of fresh p—tfigp— ffflmgs, fillings older than seven days, before and after polishing. 400 Suntgs m 187patients were examined. We wanted to End out the quality of subjective and objective discomforts as well as the inBocnce ofprothedc metals (goM, palador)ia the oral cavity on the height of electric potential and occurrence of discomforts. The differences in potential between fresh, polished and non-polished SHmgs are statistical^ signiScand in aU kinds of tested amalgams. Subjective discomforts occurred in 1£ % of total number of cases and m 6J % of tested patients who hadprotheticmetals m then-mouths. Electric potential of amalgam ffihngs lowers doe to agmg and polishing.
