  ABSTRACT: In this work, samples of titanium dental implants in salivary environment in the presence of certain foods were studied. 24 samples were prepared and subjected to the reactivity of certain foods for 6, 5, 6 and 7 weeks. The ICP-MS technique was used to analyze the prepared samples. The results obtained showed no corrosion of the titanium alone in an artificial salivary medium. Significant corrosion was observed in the presence of food, which is manifested by the presence of traces of titanium in the samples.
