When it comes to the service life of dental implants, some middle-aged people who lack teeth mistakenly believe that dental implants can only last for ten years. They are worried that dental implants will fall behind and cannot be remedied because of alveolar bone damage.

Nowadays, with the progress of technology and people's attention to oral health, the service life of implants is also extending. At present, the service life of implants is generally more than ten years. Even if the implant fails, the tooth can be repaired with bone graft.

How can I use implanted teeth for a long time?

First, let the chewing pressure of implant teeth be reasonable to prevent excessive force. After implantation, we should start with soft food and give implant teeth enough time to adapt to chewing, so as to give better play to the efficiency of implantation.

Second: do a good job in daily cleaning of oral cavity and dental implants. Poor oral hygiene is easy to cause periimplant inflammation. Therefore, in addition to routine brushing and flossing, special attention should be paid to the hygiene around the implant, focusing on removing the part between the implant and the gum and the surrounding gum tissue. When choosing a toothbrush, we should also choose soft and hard bristles, round head of toothbrush, toothpaste and warm water cleaning.

Third, natural teeth always have small physiological changes. Therefore, we should go to the hospital for mixed treatment regularly so that the implant can adapt to the changing occlusal relationship.

Fourth, regular review and medical care. After planting, if brushing is not enough, you should also go to the hospital regularly to clean the implanted teeth and natural teeth. Generally speaking, Amy has to go to the dental clinic for 6 months to clean her teeth and remove plaque and stones that cannot be removed by brushing her teeth in time.
