Dental implants are one of the most durable and natural-looking solutions for replacing missing teeth. However, regular maintenance is essential to ensure their long-term success. While implants cannot get cavities, the gums and bone supporting them need proper care to prevent infections such as peri-implantitis.
Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush, clean between implants using floss or interdental brushes, and consider using a water flosser for better plaque removal. Visit your dentist every 6 months for a professional implant check-up and cleaning. Regular follow-up appointments help detect problems early and keep your implants healthy.
Avoid smoking and tobacco, maintain good oral hygiene, and eat a balanced diet rich in calcium and protein to support healthy gums and bone. If you experience bleeding gums, swelling, pain, bad breath, or looseness around an implant, seek dental care immediately.
