Abstract

Chronic influence of metals on the human body differs from their acute toxic effect. In some individuals subjected to a long-term chronic impact of low doses of metals, chronic inflammatory diseases, including oncological diseases, develop against a background of neurological symptoms. Today, the overwhelming majority of the population older than 40–50 years carry metal alloys in the form of dental prostheses and various implants in the body. Because of metal corrosion, an increased concentration of ions is formed in the body of these subjects. Galvanic currents induced in the presence of any metals promote corrosion and the transfer of metal ions in the body. If these currents are sufficiently strong (when the potential difference is more than 150 mV), the development of local inflammatory pathologies due to the concentration of metal ions in their foci is stimulated.
