A group of patients, with oral symptoms such as oral smart, battery taste and mental taste, were examined to study the relationship, if any, between intraoral currents, created at metallic contacts between restorative materials, and taste perception thresholds. The patients were examined with an electrogustometric method for determination of taste threshold levels. Further the intraoral currents were calculated from data obtained at potential and polarization measurements. Comparisons were then between groups of subjects with and without oral symptoms. The results of this study indicate that patients with certain oral symptoms have lower threshold levels for electric taste stimulation than persons in a control group selected at random. No differences were, however, observed between the magnitudes of intraoral currents in the two groups.
对一组有口腔刺痛、金属味和精神性味觉等口腔症状的患者进行检查，以研究修复材料之间金属接触产生的口腔内电流与味觉感知阈值之间是否存在关系。采用电味觉测量法对患者进行检查以确定味觉阈值水平。此外，根据在电位和极化测量中获得的数据计算口腔内电流。然后对有和没有口腔症状的受试者组进行比较。本研究结果表明，有某些口腔症状的患者比随机选择的对照组人员对电味觉刺激的阈值水平更低。然而，两组之间口腔内电流的大小没有观察到差异。
