Dental Implants: Indications and Maintenance

Dental implants are a durable solution for tooth loss. Let's understand this procedure better.

When Implants Are Indicated

• Loss of one or more teeth
• Adequate jawbone to receive implant
• Good general and oral health
• Non-smoker or willing to quit

How Maintenance Works

Implant maintenance is similar to natural teeth:

1. Daily brushing with soft brush

2. Flossing or water irrigation

3. Professional cleaning every 6 months

4. Regular dental visits

How Long They Last

With proper care, implants can last 20+ years, some lasting a lifetime. Success rate is over 95%.
