Abstract:
Allergies related to dentistry generally constitute delayed hypersensitivity reactions to specific dental materials. Although true allergic hypersensitivity to dental materials is rare, certain products have definite allergenic properties. This review presents a comparative evaluation of the biocompatibility of nickel-chromium, nickel-chromium-beryllium, and cobalt-chromium alloys.
