Complications are rareImplants much like natural teeth will last for as long as you can keep them clean. Once the implants and surrounding soft tissues are seen to be healthy and the new teeth comfortable and correctly adjusted, it is the quality of your home care and willingness to present for regular maintenance reviews that will have most influence on how long they will last. |
Proper care is requiredWhen poorly cared for, implants will develop a covering of hard and soft deposits (calculus and plaque) which is very similar to that found on neglected natural teeth. Untreated, these deposits can lead to gum infection, bleeding, soreness and general discomfort, just as they can occur around natural teeth. Well maintained implants placed into adequate bone can be expected to last for many years and probably for your lifetime. |
