Short-form video discussing potential risks of implants and materials placed in or on the body. Speaker emphasizes that implants are foreign bodies provoking immune response (capsule formation and ongoing stimulation), individual variability in reactions, and mentions growing use of porcelain and testing for metal/silicone sensitivities in dentistry.

I think you have to, you know, be very cautious with all the things you put into and onto your body because you never know which thing is going to really be a problem for you specifically. Right. There's no. I don't have a specific battery of tests that I can give any individual to tell them. If you put this in, you're going to react a lot. Now some people are doing more testing as it relates to metals and silicone. Like you, you discussed earlier, especially as you're in the dentistry world. There's. There's a lot of this now. A lot of people are getting more porcelain done because that's less of a. Of an issue, less reactive. Yeah, yeah. Breast implants, no matter where they're manufactured, carry risks. Why is that? Right. Because it's a foreign body. Your body's going to recognize it and try to wall it off, Build a little collagen sack, wall around it, and over time, it's going to still stimulate your immune system. It's not inert. It's not like it doesn't react. It doesn't matter what surface it is, smooth or textured, they're all going to react and stimulate your immune system. So no matter what, it has some level of risk, some level of insult to your body.
