Tips for Maintaining Implant Hygiene
Schedule Regular Dental Cleanings:
Routine dental checkups and cleanings are vital for keeping your implants in great condition. During these visits, your dentist will assess the health of your implants and surrounding tissues to ensure everything is functioning as it should.
Brush Twice a Day
Use a soft-bristle toothbrush to gently clean the areas around and beneath your implant crown twice daily. This helps remove plaque and debris that can lead to gum inflammation or other complications.
Choose a Low-Abrasive Toothpaste
To protect the surface of your implants, use a low-abrasive toothpaste specifically designed for implant care. These toothpastes clean effectively while preventing damage to the implant’s materials.
Floss Daily
Cleaning between your teeth and around your implants is crucial. Use unwaxed tape or implant-specific floss, such as Teflon band floss, to reduce plaque buildup and decrease the likelihood of gum disease or infection.
Use Alcohol-Free Oral Rinse
Incorporate an alcohol-free mouth rinse into your daily routine. Rinsing twice a day keeps your mouth fresh, helps reduce bacteria, and minimizes irritation near the implant site.
By following these tips, you can support the long-term health of your implants and maintain a healthy, confident smile.
