Abstract
Under both in vitro and in vivo conditions, bases of zinc oxide-eugenol, calcium hydroxide, and zinc phosphate cement reduced the rate of thermal diffusion through amalgam restorations. Thermal diffusion was slowest in the presence of zinc oxide-eugenol bases, followed by calcium hydroxide and zinc phosphate cement. However, the clinical significance of the differences is not known.
