Abstract

The use of fixed partial denture (FPD) nowdays has been very popular in our society.
This is due to their smaller size, and more convenient to be used and fixed in the
mouth. The choice of nickel chromium (NiCr)as the metal component of FPD is
based on its character of corrosion proof, light, and hard. However, nickel contained
can be allergic. Allergic reactions reported, vary from oedema of tongue and lip, and
mouth lining until anaphylaxis. These reactions are related to the pattern and
corrosion modes, followed by the release of metalic ions like nickel into the oral
cavity. This depends not only on the composition of metal, but also the temperature
and pH of the oral cavity. Some studies have reported the use of NiCr might cause
inflammation reaction of periodontal tissue.
