What are dental restorative materials?

Dental restorative materials are used in the treatment of the integrity, function, and morphology of missing tooth structures. Tooth structures can be damaged from caries or external trauma. The materials used in dental restoration include composites, glass ionomer, amalgam, porcelain, gold, etc. However, amalgam is phasing out from the market because of its harmful mercury content coupled with the inability to match the tooth color.
