Protect Your Dental Implants with Expert, Gentle Care
Dental implants are an investment in your oral health, and maintaining their stability requires ongoing, specialized care. Our experienced dental hygienist in provides expert implant maintenance services designed to prevent complications like peri-implantitis and ensure your implants remain healthy and functional for years to come.
Specialized Tools for Implant Safety
Unlike natural teeth, implants require unique protocols and tools to avoid damage to the titanium post or surrounding tissues. We use implant-safe instruments specifically designed to clean around implant surfaces without scratching or disturbing the integrity of the materials.
These tools ensure that plaque and tartar are effectively removed while protecting the delicate connection between your implant and gum tissue.
Targeted Biofilm Management
Biofilm buildup around implant collars can lead to inflammation and infection, just as it can around natural teeth. But in implants, this inflammation—known as peri-implantitis—can quickly lead to bone loss if left unchecked. Our maintenance visits include gentle biofilm management around the implant site, utilizing advanced techniques to remove harmful bacteria while minimizing irritation.
Personalized Product Recommendations
Maintaining your implants between dental visits is just as important as in-office care. We provide tailored product recommendations based on the specific type and placement of your implants. From antimicrobial rinses and non-abrasive toothpastes to specialized cleaning tools, we help you build a routine that supports long-term implant success.
Education for Long-Term Success
Most implant issues begin with improper home care. That’s why we take the time to educate each patient on proper flossing techniques, water flossers, and interdental brushes designed for implants. Your dental hygienist will show you how to use these tools, ensuring you’re fully equipped to care for your implants every day.
