This may be an exciting time in your life! It\u2019s been a long time coming since you\u2019ve lost an important part of your smile. If dental implants are one of the dental restorations that you\u2019re seriously considering, you may have a few questions about their longevity and how to maintain them. Don\u2019t worry, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schumacherdental.com\/meet-the-doctor.html\">Dr. Schumacher of Schumacher Dental<\/a> is here to provide you helpful reconstructive, cosmetic, family dental care and advice.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>How long can I get my dental implants to last?<\/h2>\n<p>Good news! Dental implants are unquestionably the most efficient tooth replacement option available today. Believe it or not, if you care for your dental implants properly they can last a full lifetime! With that being said, it\u2019s critical to remember that maintaining a strong jawbone and durable dental prosthetic takes work on your part. Those two components are what keep your dental implants effective for so many years. The best way to prevent a dental implant from failing is to follow these tips from your implant dentist in Wakefield.<\/p>\n<h2>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Brush and floss as if they were your real teeth.<\/h2>\n<p>Many patients enjoy dental implants because they really mimic your natural teeth! Just because your body didn\u2019t naturally create these dental prosthetics, doesn\u2019t mean you should treat them any worse than your natural teeth. That means brushing twice a day is still mandatory.<\/p>\n<p>It can be difficult to floss and clean under fixed implant dentures and bridges. You can routinely take them out to make flossing easier. This will help to remove dangerous bacteria from your natural teeth and around the are your implant was placed.<\/p>\n<h2>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Don\u2019t be afraid to use additional tools.<\/h2>\n<p>There are several types of cleaning aids that can be used to sterilize your dental implant. If you can\u2019t seem to floss comfortably, clean between your teeth with either interdental brushes (brushes for small or hard to reach areas) or even an oral irrigator (flosser that uses water). The surfaces of your dental implants can be easily scratched, so we prefer that patients invest in maintaining their implants with additional tools.<\/p>\n<h2>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Rinse with mouthwash after brushing and flossing.<\/h2>\n<p>We encourage our patients to use antimicrobial mouthwashes because they\u2019re proven to kill bacteria. This helps to remove dental debris in the hard to reach areas of your mouth. Mouthwash also decreases gum inflammation when used twice a day alongside your brushing and flossing routine.<\/p>\n<h2>4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Eating healthy keeps your teeth healthy\u2014even your implants.<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you\u2019ll have the ability to enjoy crunchy, raw, nutritious foods again, we urge patients to indulge in a well-balanced diet. To maintain your jaws strength and durability, it is important that you are feeding your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deltadentalins.com\/oral_health\/vitamins-and-minerals.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">body the right nutrients to keep it healthy<\/a>. You should incorporate foods that are rich in calcium, vitamin D, Vitamin C, and raw crunchy veggies to exercise your jaw with consistent chewing.<\/p>\n<h2>5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Visit Schumacher dental for checkups and cleanings.<\/h2>\n<p>Dental implants can be a life-changing solution, but you could end up with missing teeth again if you neglect them. A part of maintaining good dental health is visiting Dr. Schumacher for comprehensive checkups and professional deep cleanings. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schumacherdental.com\/contact-us.html\">Contact us today<\/a> to schedule your next appointment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you considering getting a dental implant in Wakefield?
