Dental implants have a high success rate. The dental implant success rate is between 90 to 95%. Numerous factors can affect the success of a dental implant e.g. gum health, oral hygiene, habits like smoking, condition of jaw bone, medical conditions like diabetes etc. and other factors like experience of dentist, technique used for implant placement etc. About 5 to 10 percent of dental implants fail. However, with regular brushing and flossing, the implant screw itself can last a lifetime, assuming you receive regular dental check-ups every 6 months. You need to visit the dentist to examine your mouth, site of implant placement and evaluate your medical and dental history to determine the suitable treatment option for you.
Next Steps
Visit the dentist for definite clinical evaluation and treatment.
Health Tips
Brush and floss at least twice a day, rinse your mouth with mouthwash, and see a dentist for routine checkups.
