Our immune system is responsible for maintaining our health. A healthy diet strengthens it and promotes the health of the whole body to defend against pathogens such as viruses, bacteria or other harmful substances.<\/p>

It is divided into two main components: The unspecific <\/strong>and the specific <\/strong>Immune system. The non-specific immune system directs its scavenger cells (macrophages) against everything that does not belong in the body. Many Incompatibilities<\/strong> are part of this.<\/p>

The specific immune system must first \"get to know\" the enemy and then directs itself with its lymphocytes in the sense of a Sensitization or allergy <\/strong>specifically only against him.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Almost every disease and inflammation runs through the immune system according to the same mechanisms. The cells of the immune system produce certain messenger substances - so-called Cytokines\u00a0 <\/strong>or\u00a0 Inflammatory mediators<\/strong>\u00a0- are released, which perform a wide variety of tasks during the body's \"defense phase\".<\/p>

These include, for example, defense against an attack from the outside (infection) or from the inside (police in the case of tumors). In the case of acute, short-term inflammation (e.g. a cold), this makes perfect sense. In the case of chronic inflammation, however, the same mechanisms sometimes run subliminally for years and lead to long-term stress.<\/p>

The long-term, subliminal effect of these inflammatory cytokines explains the individual and very different symptoms.<\/strong><\/p>

Chronic (permanent) exposure to various triggers - including dental materials - leads to a disruption of the regulatory function, disturbances in the acid\/base, vitamin and hormone balance, as well as oxidative and nitrosative stress due to increased cytokine release.<\/p>

The reduced immune tolerance favours the development of further sensitization. A wheel begins to turn, which is sometimes difficult to stop.<\/p>

As this condition is usually painless and only accompanied by general symptoms that cannot always be clearly assigned, it is referred to as \"silent inflammation\"<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Of course, these mechanisms also apply to what happens in the oral cavity...we only have ONE immune system! It is our task to recognize and correctly classify them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
