The implants in your mouth require better care than natural teeth. Although they are similar to tooth roots in many respects, their daily care should be more meticulous due to their direct contact with the bone and differences in the surrounding connective tissue.
Today, round form implants are most commonly used. For this reason; The neck area of your implant, which is adjacent to the gum, should be cleaned all around and cleaned from plaque. In addition to toothbrushes and toothpaste, implant prostheses also need materials that can care for the interface. At least once a day, depending on the amount of interfacial space, care tools such as interface brush, super floss, ultra floss and water jet should be used and areas that the brush does not or cannot touch should be cleaned.
Patients who are planning to have implants or have already had implants may lose their implants for the same reason why they lost their tooth(s). At the same time, the care of crowns/bridges or removable prostheses is as important as the care of implants.
After all; daily care after dental implants is more important than anything else. You may have neglected to care for your teeth, but you should never neglect implant care.
