Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effects of the corrosion products of dental silver and gold- and silver-palladium alloys in the mouth on human development remain unclear. Metal ion compositions, such as silver, copper, and tin, are known to exhibit low-level embryotoxicity. The variations in embryotoxicity should be examined for the corrosion products of alloy surfaces. Using the Embryo Stem Cell Test (EST) protocol, the teratogenicity of unknown chemical substances in human fetuses can be predicted with mouse ES and 3T3 cells. In the present study, mouse iPS and ES cells were used. As a result, there was no significant difference in embryotoxicity between alloy surfaces treated or untreated with human or artificial saliva. However, mechanical scratching and subsequent immersion in hydrochloric and sulfuric acids markedly facilitated the elution of alloy elements from alloy surfaces, raising concerns about embryotoxicity.
