Applicability of zirconia dental prostheses for metal allergy patients
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the applicability of zirconium dioxide (zirconia) as a substitute for metal alloys in a group of metal allergy patients. Fourteen patients (eight women, six men) who had been restored with porcelain-fused-to-metal fixed partial dentures (FPDs) and had exhibited hypersensitivity lesions to dental alloys were enrolled in this study. Patients were previously patch-tested using standard testing substances authorized by the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group. Patients received FPDs with zirconia frameworks and occurrences of oral symptoms were evaluated. No hypersensitivity lesions in the mouth or on the skin were encountered during the follow-up period of 3 years. Zirconia FPDs may be an alternative to porcelain-fused-to-metal FPDs in patients with metal allergies.

For patients who have shown allergic reactions to dental alloys, very limited evidence suggests that the replacement of these prostheses with zirconia-based prostheses was associated with a resolution of the allergic reaction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
