Because the most important factor affecting how long dental implants last is how well you take care of them, it is important to take the time to clean them well. You should brush and floss as you normally would, and you should also maintain regular visits with us so that we can ensure that the implant is in good condition.
In most cases, before the placement of a dental implant, there is some preparatory work that needs to be done. This may include the removal of a damaged tooth, and will often include a bone graft procedure to bulk up the jawbone. Following the loss of a tooth, patients experience rapid bone loss. This is due to the connection of tooth to jaw being lost.
