Dental Amalgam Capsule Holder

Dental Amalgam Capsule Holders are dental instruments used to hold and dispense dental amalgam capsules during dental procedures. Dental amalgam is a mixture of metals, including silver, tin, copper, and mercury, which is commonly used for dental fillings.

The Dental Amalgam Capsule Holder is designed to securely hold the amalgam capsule in place while the dentist prepares the filling material. It typically consists of a handle and a mechanism to hold the capsule firmly in position. The holder allows for easy access to the amalgam material and ensures accurate and controlled dispensing.

These capsule holders are an essential tool in dental practices as they facilitate the efficient and precise placement of dental amalgam. They are part of the supply class Dental Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies, which falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies.

Please note that the use of dental amalgam has become less common in recent years due to concerns about the potential health risks associated with mercury exposure. Many dental practices have transitioned to alternative filling materials, such as composite resin or porcelain.
