ELECTROCHEMICAL COMPATIBILITY OF METAL ALLOYS USED FOR NON-REMOVABLE PROSTHETICS ON DENTAL IMPLANTS

Abstract

Summary. Currently, on the market there are many different types of alloys that can be used to make
orthopedic fixed structures. With the development of technologies, in addition to traditional methods
of prosthetics, prosthetics on dental implants is becoming increasingly important, and this dictates
special requirements for the choice of structural material, as there is a constant contact of orthopedic
construction with titanium alloys of dental implants. The general condition for all materials is their
constant presence in the oral cavity for a long time, and, as a result, they have a constant effect on the
oral cavity and the human body as a whole. Therefore, knowledge of the biocompatibility of dental
alloys is of great importance.
