Abstract

Our study showed that galvanosis disrupts dental health: electrochemical processes are activated in the oral cavity leading to imbalance of trace element composition of saliva, a shift in the acid-base balance, potential difference, a change in enzymatic activity of saliva and an increase in permeability of oral mucosa.

Keywords

galvanosis, potential difference, enzymes, permeability of oral mucosa
