The diversity of alloys available to the dental practitioner has never been more extensive. We now have the opportunity to select alloys based on the individual patient's specific biologic, functional, and economic requirements. There is no one alloy suitable for all applications, because in metallurgy there is a constant trade-off in properties as changes in formulations are made. To make optimal use of the choices available, and for ethical and medicolegal considerations, it is incumbent upon the practitioner to be aware of the identity and composition of the alloys prescribed.
牙科医生可选用的合金种类从未如此丰富。现在，我们有机会根据患者个体的特定生物学、功能和经济需求来选择合金。不存在适用于所有应用的单一合金，因为在冶金学中，随着配方的改变，性能之间总是存在权衡。为了最佳地利用现有的选择，并出于伦理和法医学考虑，从业者有责任了解所开合金的种类和成分。
