Hello. This is S-Plant Dental Hospital.

To use implants for a long time, it is important to understand the various factors that affect implant lifespan. The material and quality of the implant, the skill and experience of the medical team performing the procedure, and the patient’s oral hygiene management and lifestyle habits all play a major role in the long-term lifespan of the implant.

Today, we will look at five factors that affect implant lifespan and explain how to keep implants healthier for longer.

1. Regular tooth brushing

To keep the entire mouth, including the implants, clean, you should brush at least twice a day, in the morning and at night. Use a soft toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste to thoroughly clean the gums and teeth around the implant. When brushing, it is important to gently brush along the gum line as if massaging it.

2. Use dental floss and interdental brushes

Tooth brushing alone cannot completely remove plaque and food debris around implants. Use dental floss and interdental brushes to clean thoroughly between the implants and along the gum line. In particular, carefully manage even the tiny gaps around the implant to help prevent infection.

3. Use an antibacterial mouthwash

Using an antibacterial mouthwash can effectively remove bacteria around implants. Mouthwash helps reduce the number of bacteria in the mouth, prevent infection, and maintain fresh breath. Use mouthwash every day to manage oral hygiene more thoroughly.

4. Quit smoking

5. Regular dental visits

Regular dental visits make it possible to check the condition of implants, detect problems early, and take appropriate action. It is generally recommended to visit the dentist every six months to check your implants and oral health, and to receive scaling if needed.
