Essential trace elements significantly impact skin health, with deficiencies or excesses causing diseases like acrodermatitis enteropathica (Zn) and Wilson

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology and trace element metabolism.
  • Biochemistry of essential elements in skin health.

Context:

  • Skin diseases are often linked to imbalances in essential trace elements.
  • Metal allergies from dental procedures can manifest as various skin conditions.

Purpose:

  • To review skin diseases associated with trace element dysfunction.
  • To highlight the role of elements like Zinc, Copper, Arsenic, and dental metals in dermatological conditions.

Summary:

  • Discusses skin conditions arising from trace element deposition or deficiency, including hemochromatosis (iron), acrodermatitis enteropathica (Zinc), Wilson's disease (Copper), and Menkes' syndrome (Copper).
  • Explores toxicosis from Arsenic (Bowen disease) and metal allergies (Nickel, Cobalt, Chromium, Tin) causing conditions like palmo-plantar pustulosis and lichen planus.
