Side Effects of Dental Metal Implants: Impact on Human Health (Metal as a Risk Factor of Implantologic Treatment)

To avoid hypersensitivity reactions to metallic dental implants, precautionary principles for primary prevention should be established. (26/07/2019)

The Inflammatory Effects of Breast Implant Particulate Shedding: Comparison With Orthopedic Implants

Implant debris-induced bioreactivity/inflammation is mostly a peri-implant phenomenon caused by local innate immune cells (eg, macrophages) that produce proinflammatory cytokines. (26/07/2019)

Statement from FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, M.D. and Jeff Shuren, M.D., Director of the Center for Devices and Radiological Health, on efforts to evaluate materials in medical devices to address potential safety questions

During this time, we know that tiny amounts of metals may be gradually released into the bloodstream and surrounding tissues. (26/07/2019)

Metal Hypersensitivity to Orthopedic Implants

The titanium hip implant had trace amounts of chromium; the periprosthetic plate and screws had trace levels of lanthanium, niobium and vanadium. This study therefore brings attention to the potential for metal allergens in implants. (24/07/2019)

Titanium release in peri-implantitis.

We showed that high contents of particulate and submicron Titanium were present in peri-implantitis tissue. These can potentially aggravate inflammation, which might reduce the prognosis of treatment interventions. (24/07/2019)

Patient Preference-Sensitive Areas: Using Patient Preference Information in Medical Device Evaluation

Patients may value the benefits and risks of a technology or treatment differently from healthcare professionals and/or caregivers. (24/07/2019)

Carbon Coated Implants as a New Solution for Metal Allergy in Early-Onset Scoliosis: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

A titanium allergy was suspected and blood was sent for allergy testing. A test confirmed hypersensitivity to titanium, niobium, molybdenum, iron, and aluminum, among others. (18/07/2019)

Packaging can be a source of chemical food and dental Implants contaminants.

The transfer of chemical contaminants from food contact materials into food is called migration. According to some scientists, food contact materials are an underestimated source of chemical food contamination. (11/07/2019)

Five Things We Found In The FDA’s Hidden Device Database

There were 2.1 million reports for bad dental implants. And 114,200 were reported in 2018 in U.S.. (11/07/2019)
