Abstract / Excerpt:

Titanium is not only used in dental implants, but also in many dental materials and has shown to be toxic. Nickel braces, are often called “stainless steel”, as are nickel crowns. Nickel has been deemed to be carcinogenic, according to the National Toxicology Program, Department of Health and Human Services. When oral galvanism occurs, particles are released from the oral cavity and can translocate to other areas in the body, causing
potential toxicity and biological hazards
