Tooth and Denture Implants require the same daily brushing and flossing, and the same amount of regular checkups. Just like your natural teeth, the better you take care of your replacements, the longer they will last
Once your dental implant restoration is completed, it is important to keep the area clean and infection-free. Dental implants can accumulate plaque and tartar just as teeth can. Whether you have just one tooth replaced by an implant or several, a professional cleaning schedule will be necessary to keep your implants healthy. The time interval for these professional cleanings will be determined by your individual needs. Sometimes we may even need to remove your prosthetic to clean and change components.
As a new dental patient, there are a few things you should bring to your appointment to ensure that your visit goes smoothly.
Call us to schedule an appointment. Our team will be able to provide you with all the necessary information you need to know before your visit.
You’ll have to fill out some paperwork, either online or at the clinic’s office. This will include personal and medical history, insurance information, and contact information.
On the day of the appointment, meet the dentist and discuss your dental history. They may perform an oral examination and take x-rays if needed.
Based on your oral examination and dental history, the dentist will develop a dental plan for you, which may include regular cleanings and checkups, restorative procedures, and other treatments.
Schedule regular checkups with your dentist, as recommended by their dental plan, to maintain good oral health.
