Abstract: Dental materials are used for restoration purposes for hundreds of millions of patients worldwide each year. In recent years, changes in the legislation of various countries and increasing social awareness have increased the expectation of products suitable for green production. In this study, the suitability of some dental filling materials for green production is discussed from various angles. Weighted aggregated sum product assessment (WASPAS) method was applied for a total of 14 sub-criteria in five main categories determined for green production. The results show that Ni-Fe-Cr alloy is the most suitable dental filling material for green production in many respects.
