Since we do know that it helps in milk, and that they are now using silver plated body parts to prevent infection, it does seem likely that there is some antimicrobal action there.  I suspect it is simply a matter of contact. That is it might reduce the number of bacteria in the salavia, those that come in contact with the silver. But it is unlikely that any significant silver would make it into the salavia without something else happening.

Thanks, Mike.  I appreciate your support.  All I want to know, guys, is if silver in solid form would provide any benefit to the body (as it does for dairy products) without being administered in colloidal format.  I'm getting the impression that our collective knowledge extends only to the benefits of the colloidal form of silver.  I humbly accept correction.   Pacific Pine Cones - scented, coloured, plain for Christmas crafts & decor - pine, spruce, redwood.  Send an email request for product/price list.

I don't understand why you say this, Steve. The writers to this thread 
have emphasized again and again that .999 fine silver coins, bars, 
medallions, and so on, are very common and inexpensive sources of 
silver for making CS.

JUST BECAUSE IT'S IN THE SHAPE OF A COIN DOES NOT MEAN THAT THERE'S 
ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT!

It DOES have to be .999 pure or better!

This point is worth looking at. It would depend on the relative
electrolytic potentials of the metals. Does anybody have an idea here?

Nicole's idea deserves a thoughtful answer.

Be well,
