Implant Supported Denture

How to avoid dental implant problems

Dentures have been around forever and have come a long way since George Washington's day.

a dental dentures implant provides a much needed anchor. Your implant denture snaps into place. No need for messy adhesives and no more sore spots from dentures rubbing your gums the wrong way.

Sometimes the design includes a supporting bar that is connected to two or more implants. These implants require extra care and attention to prevent gum inflammation and avoid dental implant problems.

I like this dentist's explanation of how to care for dental implants:

How to avoid dental implant complications:

Dental implant dentures are quite a large investment of time and money. It's important to follow your dentist's recommendations for care and maintenance.

• Professional check ups and cleanings
Every 6 months for most. However, some clients will need a cleaning and check up every 3-4 months.
• Brush and floss
Implants need to be cleaned just like teeth. Implants don't get cavities but gum tissue around implants is just as vulnerable to gum disease and has to be kept healthy.
• Use a waterpik
Some implant dentures are very difficult to clean and would benefit from using a waterpik or another oral irrigator.
• Use Listerine
Just like the commercial says, Listerine mouthwash kills the germs that cause gingivitis. Swishing for 30 seconds twice a day will help keep your gums around your implants healthy. It doesn't taste good and takes a little getting used to. Try diluting it at first, then gradually work your way to using it full strength.
