Enumerate and explain the steps in manipulation of Dental Amalgam (15 Points)

1) Selection of alloys
-can be either with zin or zinc-free and it should be with high copper content
2) Proportioning and dispensing
-1:1 one drop of mercury is partnered with one pellet of amalgam, and
dispensed using pre-weighed pellets, preproportioned capsules and
mechanical dispensers.
3) Trituration
-dissolving alloy particles in mercury to obtain plastic mass of amalgam
4) Condensation
- adapt amalgam to cavity walls and removes excess mercury
5) Carving
-to produce proper physiological contours
6) Burnishing
--decrease the size and number of voids
7) Finishing and polishing
-Make restoration aesthetically more appealing
Explain the illustration (15 points)
When calcium sulphate undergoes open kettle technique, it would result into type II or model plaster.
When it undergoes hi-pressure steam, it would result to type III or stone. When it is boiled and mixed
with calcium chloride, it would result to type IV or type V or high-strength stone.
