According to the statistics of the phenomena of intolerance to dental materials, its main source is alloys [1-3]. They manifest their side effects most
actively when significant electrochemical interactions. In this respect, forged-brazed stainless steel structures are always
potentially dangerous. However, according to our observations, individual stamped stainless steel crowns are also capable of creating a potential difference
of more than 120 mV among themselves in some cases. This article is devoted to the sources of a special kind of intolerance –
combinations of alloys of various stresses, some of the active surfaces of which (the surfaces of the corresponding metal parts of dental structures) are in contact
with temporary cements, with canal filling pastes, or with their residues.
