Soares et al. 2021 [7] in vitroMicrostructured annealed Ti G4/CoCrMo0.9% NaCl and BB at 225 ppm of F2 at pH 6 and pH 2 Naturally airy. 24 HOCP3, ZRA4.0.2(i) The corrosion resistance of the different couples decreased in the mouthwash solution.
Acid-treated Cp Ti G4/CoCrMo(ii) As the solution became more acidic, an increase in galvanic current values was observed.

Ti G2/CoCr-c(iii) 30 min for OCP and 4 hours CP(iv) The NiCr/Ti alloy loses its passivity and actively dissolves.
Ti G2/Ti6Al4V(iv) 0.28: CoCr-c and NiCrTi(v) The TiG2/Ti6Al4V couple shows a huge increase in corrosion rates.
(v) 5: CoCr, Ti6Al4V, AuPd(vi) The Au alloy showed the most noble electrochemical behavior among all the materials studied.
