Metal Reactivity Assessment (JACE-MRA)
Essential for dental implants or metal exposures
Protect Your Health With The JACE-MRA Test
Metal sensitivities can lead to a variety of health issues, particularly for individuals with dental implants or occupational exposure to metals. The JACE-MRA provides precise detection of sensitivities to common metals such as nickel, cobalt, and titanium. Understanding these sensitivities can help prevent allergic reactions and improve overall health management.
When considering dental implants, it is vital to ensure that your body will not react negatively to the metals commonly used in these procedures. Metal sensitivity can lead to significant health issues, especially for individuals with a predisposition to allergies or autoimmune conditions.
