My son had some put in a few years ago to correct legs growing in the wrong direction. Had them taken out a year later, in '07. He's fine. Our experience has shown, so far, that there's no problem.
Titanium is generally considered to be biocompatible and non-toxic to the human body. It is commonly used in medical implants like joint replacements and dental implants due to its ability to integrate with bone tissue. However, some people may have rare allergic reactions to titanium.
Common metals used in the human body during fracture repair include stainless steel, titanium, and cobalt-chromium alloys. These metals are often used in implants such as plates, screws, and pins to stabilize fractured bones and aid in the healing process.
Titanium dioxide is considered safe when used in approved doses in food and personal care products. However, inhaling large amounts of titanium dioxide dust may be harmful to the lungs. It is always best to follow safety guidelines and use products containing titanium dioxide as directed.
Titanium body jewelry is a popular choice due to its hypoallergenic properties and resistance to corrosion. It is safe for most people, even those with metal allergies. Always ensure that the titanium used is implant-grade for the best quality and safety.
well they are not exactly not really harmful they sometimes are harmful because they are scared....
According to my neurosurgeon, "Yes, you can have an MRI with titanium in your spine." I asked this very question as I will be having disc replacement with titanium in my cervical spine (with plastic screws, I believe).
Implants and screws fabricated from titanium exhibit excellent compatibility with MRI and CT scanning. Scatter is minimal, and because titanium is non-ferrous, localized heating during MR is negligible.

tanning should have no effect on the screws in your knee. It would just be like wearing jewelry in the tanning bed, no big deal! It doesn't heat up enough to effect the metal in your knee or anywhere else on or in your body.

Yes, but tanning is still bad for you!

Generally deodorants are not harmful to the body.

Titanium!!
I had a pedestrian/auto accident. Was hit at 45 mph. Just had my titaniam implants removed. 7 screws and a 3" long plate. Can I sell them? Thank you Brandon Emery bjemery@comcast.net
In a simple body piercing application the answer is no.
Well Titanium is an ultra light alloy and is available in various grades for various purposes. In the medical end, titanium (generally grade 23 or better) is used for hip replacements, ball and socket joint replacements, it is also used for screws pins and plates that are intended to be left inside the body due in part to it's bio-compatability. Which means it wont elicit an adverse reaction when used in the body (other wise know as a rejection).
