My mother has, for a few years now, elected to use dentures since she lost a front tooth.
However, so far, she is allergic to all the usual materials used in dentures, including titanium.
She would appear to be in that 4% of the population who have a reaction to the material.

At this stage, she is pretty desperate to find a material which will not react to her body.
After doing some research online, there would appear to be some materials she hasn't used yet, Ziterion/Biohorizons.
My question is, are those materials 100% compatible with the body?

All comments welcome.

These are not dental materials they are brands or titanium implants. Can you give us more information?
