Can molar implant bone reced when i chew over the time because implant dont have periodontal lingaments what happen when i chew someting with implant can osseiointegrated bone loose
Once the implant is placed the bone is formed around the implant, it became a complete bone mass. and bone dose not reced by chewing it reced because of poor oral hygiene.If we maintain good oral hygiene and get our teeth cleaned at regular intervals, the implant will last throughout your life.

After placing a dental implant, we give a time of 3-6 months for complete osseointegration of the implant to the bone. In addition an implant supported tooth is always given in Implant protected occlusion which means it would be 0.5-1 mm below the level of occlusal table. So a molar tooth replaced with implant support can be used for chewing. On time, if an implant gets loosened, it might be one of many reasons for implant loosening and surely not due to lack of periodontal ligament..
