  • Title: Streptococcus mutans in plaque from conventional and from non-gamma-2 amalgam restorations.
    Author: Wallman-Björklund C, Svanberg M, Emilson CG.
    Journal: Scand J Dent Res; 1987 Jun; 95(3):266-9. PubMed ID: 3474768.
    Abstract:
    The frequency of Streptococcus mutans in plaque material from margins of conventional amalgam and non-gamma-2 amalgam fillings was examined in six subjects. One and 2 months after restorative treatment the mean values of the percentage S. mutans of the total number of microorganisms were somewhat lower in samples from non-gamma-2 amalgams than in those from conventional amalgams. The difference in values, however, was not statistically significant.
