If there were no problems with healing after the implant was placed, dental implant failure is most likely to happen because of poor dental hygiene. If you do not brush properly and bacteria accumulate on the implant, it can cause an inflammatory condition called mucositis. This can lead to peri-implantitis, which causes further inflammation and bone loss surrounding the implant. This will cause the implant to loosen.
The best way to avoid implant failure is to follow your dentist’s instructions and to practice proper dental hygiene. Do not miss any recall appointments.
Titanium implants are a long-lasting, permanent and durable tooth replacement option for one or multiple missing teeth. A dental implant can restore form and function to your mouth and perform in the same manner as your natural teeth.
