Hey all. I'm a second-year dental student. We have been taught to use carbide burs for intra-coronal preps and diamond burs for extra-coronal, but I find myself prefering diamond burs all around. Is there any reason not to use diamond burs to prepare amalgam/composite cavities, provided the dimensions of the bur were correct for the prep?
