StainlessSteel Post - danger?

[Guest guest]

Had my first crown broke open yesterday. Quite an experience. There

was a stainless steel post supporting the tooth. The dentist could

not get it out, and advised me to keep it in, which I agreed to in

that moment.

I am concerned - initially wanted all metal out of my mouth. Any

takes on stainless steel posting in the mouth and the danger of toxic

reaction?

Thank you so much.

Well, this may not be helpful but I had had a pin supporting the

restoration under one of my crowns and my biologic dentist definately

wanted it removed. However, I don't know that it was stainless steel

- it might have been something else and hence her objection to it.
