Crown to go next to an amalgam and do not want the galvanic shock.plan to place porcelain or resin over it to help as well.tooth #18any info much appreciated.
I would say it is a normal operation for this and lots of other computer controlled auto boxes.
First of all, none of those materials are magnetic Iron is, but its not used in dental fillings. 22k gold is not used either its way too soft As for the galvanic shock, its not a problem with crowns, as there is no oxidation associated with those materials. Crown's metal portion is mostly made of noble materials (gold, platinum, palladium) and some antioxidative agents. Amalgam, on the other side is made of copper, silver and mercury; It undergo a lot of oxidation and react with each other, but not with the materials used in crowns.
Take it back to the stealership.
