What makes titanium implants toxic and cause allergic and autoimmune reactions? Dental implants are made of titanium because of biocompatibililty. Dental implants give titanium toxicity allergic and autoimune reactions.
The simply answer to the long-term success rate of dental implants are that dental implants can fail, but fortunately very infrequently. Failure rates vary depending on the site in the mouth, whether they are placed into natural or grafted bone and whether the patient smokes. The overall success rates in natural bone is 95%, though this falls to between 85 and 90% in grafted bone. If a patient smokes it has been shown that they are statistically two and a half times more likely to have an implant fail than a non-smoker.
