Restorative dentistry comprises a large amount of dental treatment. There is subjectivity among dentists concerning the reasons for initial placement and replacement of amalgam restorations. Different instructional methods and learned experiences while in private practice has much to do with this subjectivity even though, specific criteria have been established for standardization of initial placement and replacement of amalgam restorations. There are many reasons for the failure of amalgam restorations. Recurrent caries and material/tooth interface defects have been and are among the leading reasons for replacement. There are also differences in opinion among dentists concerning diagnosis of primary carious lesions.
修复牙科包含大量的牙科治疗。在牙医中，对于汞合金修复体的初次放置和更换原因存在主观性。尽管已经建立了汞合金修复体初次放置和更换标准化的具体标准，但在私人执业期间不同的教学方法和学习经历与这种主观性有很大关系。汞合金修复体失败有很多原因。复发性龋齿和材料/牙齿界面缺陷一直是并仍然是更换的主要原因之一。在牙医中，对于原发性龋损的诊断也存在意见分歧。
