Allergic to metal is a very broad statement. Do you eat with plastic utensils?

You must be more specific about the metals which give you problems and in what manner.

Even "metal free" dental restorative materials have metal particles to show up on x-rays. Without them, x-rays would show dark spots looking like cavities, tumors, infection, defective teeth, etc. The metal nickel is the main culprit that irritates the skin.
