A total of 19 patients with stainless denture intolerance were examined. In addition to the routine stomatological examination, the authors determined pH of mixed saliva, measured the steady-state potentials of dentures, and performed epicutaneous tests with samples made of stainless steel, chromium and nickel. In all the patients, the epicutaneous tests with chromium and/or nickel were positive, those with stainless steel were negative. Abnormal reactions can be accounted for by the influence of an electroplating factor in 8 patients and by an allergic factor in 6. It is impossible to explain the pathogenesis of intolerance in 3 patients. Replacement of the dentures by those made of other material resulted in full recovery. Terminological aspects are also dealt with in the present paper.
