Implant maintenance is essential to maintain the health and longevity of dental implants. While dental implants are made of titanium, they are still susceptible to periodontal disease, which affects over 70% of adults. Failure to maintain proper implant care can lead to implant failure and even more severe periodontal disease. At our dental practice, the importance of a strict home care routine and rigorous professional care protocol for implant maintenance is emphasized to patients. Our dental professionals conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the implant and recommend a personalized maintenance plan to keep the implant in excellent condition. Patients are educated on proper brushing and flossing techniques to ensure proper implant maintenance at home.
Our team of dental professionals is trained to identify and treat implant-related issues quickly and effectively. In the event that an implant becomes infected or clinically problematic, we offer evaluation and treatment of the affected areas. By prioritizing implant maintenance and following recommended care protocols, patients can achieve a long-lasting result with their dental implant and maintain their dentition functioning at its best for a long time. Trust our team to provide the best care for your implant and keep your oral health in top condition.

Proper maintenance helps prevent implant failure, infection, and other complications that can compromise the longevity and functionality of your dental implants.
An implant maintenance appointment typically involves a comprehensive exam, cleaning, and evaluation of the implant, gum tissue, and surrounding structures.
The frequency of implant maintenance appointments may vary depending on the individual’s oral health status and the type of implant. However, most dentists recommend scheduling implant maintenance appointments at least twice a year.
Patients can maintain their dental implants at home by brushing and flossing regularly, using an antibacterial mouthwash, and avoiding smoking and tobacco use.
With proper care and techniques, the cleaning process should not damage the dental implants. However, it’s important to choose a qualified and experienced dental professional to perform the implant maintenance procedure.
The implant maintenance procedure is usually painless and should not cause discomfort. However, patients may experience mild discomfort during and after the cleaning process.
Patients can prevent peri-implantitis and other implant-related complications by maintaining good oral hygiene practices, attending regular implant maintenance appointments, and avoiding smoking and tobacco use.
Some signs and symptoms of implant-related issues may include pain, swelling, bleeding, gum recession, implant mobility, and an unpleasant taste or odor in the mouth.
The treatment options for implant-related problems may vary depending on the severity and extent of the issue. Some treatment options may include antibiotics, scaling and root planing, implant replacement, and surgical intervention.
Patients can ensure the longevity and functionality of their dental implants in the long term by maintaining good oral hygiene practices, attending regular implant maintenance appointments, and seeking prompt treatment for any issues that may arise.
