How Do I Care for a Dental Implant?

A dental implant should be cared for just like a natural tooth.

Brush twice a day, floss every day, and continue seeing your dentist for regular cleanings and exams. Although an implant can’t get a cavity, the gums and bone supporting it can still develop problems if plaque isn’t removed.

Keeping your implant healthy is a partnership between you and your dental team. We’ll monitor it at each visit and help you protect your investment for years to come.
