title: Clinical evaluation of Dycal under amalgam restorations.
abstract: Sixty-eight clinical amalgam restorations were removed to examine the consistency of the calcium hydroxide bases. The variation of the base consistency was influenced by the age and/or clinical profile of teeth and the status of the restorations. The clinical conditions affected the calcium hydroxide base consistency.
