— Thirty referred patients and 15 control subjects were investigated with reference to the occurrence of bimetallic corrosion in the oral cavity. No differences between patients and controls could be found regarding the registered charge transfer between dissimilar short‐circuited dental metallic restorations and/or appliances. However, a relatively large number of periodontal and mucous membrane affections, carious lesions and stomatognathic and/or temporomandibular joint disturbances were found within the patient group.
