The use of less abrasive toothpaste is also recommended, as abrasive materials may damage the surface of the implant.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use dental floss<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong>Experts recommend the use of dental floss for implants (super floss), which has a thicker part to clean around the base of the implant. These threads help prevent plaque build-up in hard-to-reach areas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>mouthwash<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong>Antibacterial mouthwashes such as chlorhexidine can be effective in controlling bacteria, but should not be used for long periods of time as they may disrupt the natural balance of oral flora.

These referrals not only help to prevent possible problems and complications, but also to maintain health and <a href=\"https:\/\/sheibaninia.net\/en\/%d8%b7%d9%88%d9%84-%d8%b9%d9%85%d8%b1-%d8%a7%db%8c%d9%85%d9%be%d9%84%d9%86%d8%aa\/\">Longevity of the implant<\/a> is also effective. In the following, we provide more details about the importance of these references and its different stages:<\/p>\n<h4>1. <strong>Examining the condition of the implant and the health of the surrounding tissues<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>After installation, the implant must be welded to the jaw bone, which is called &#8220;osseointegration&#8221;. This step is critical to the success of the implant. During regular check-up sessions, the dentist checks the state of fusion of the implant with the jawbone and makes sure that the process is progressing properly.<\/p>\n<h4>2. <strong>Diagnosis and prevention of possible problems<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Regular visits to the dentist help in early detection of possible problems such as gum infections or inflammation around the implant. One of the most common implant problems is &#8220;pre-implantitis&#8221;, which is similar to periodontitis and causes inflammation and bone loss around the implant. With regular examination, the dentist can identify the early symptoms of this problem and start the necessary treatments.<\/p>\n<h4>3. <strong>Professional implant cleaning<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>although <a href=\"https:\/\/sheibaninia.net\/en\/%d8%b1%d9%88%d8%b4-%d8%b5%d8%ad%db%8c%d8%ad-%d9%85%d8%b3%d9%88%d8%a7%da%a9-%d8%b2%d8%af%d9%86\/\">brushing teeth<\/a> And flossing by the patient at home is very important, sometimes a deeper cleaning by the dentist is necessary. Special tools such as curette and non-metallic scaler are used to clean the plaque around the implant. These professional cleanings prevent the accumulation of plaque and bacteria that can lead to infection and inflammation.<\/p>\n<h4>4. <strong>Examining the gums and soft tissues around the implant\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The dentist carefully examines the condition of the gums and soft tissues around the implant. Inflammation or redness of the gums may indicate infection or plaque accumulation around the implant, which can lead to gingival erosion and ultimately treatment failure. If the dentist notices a problem, he may suggest antiseptic or antibacterial treatments, such as special mouthwashes.<\/p>\n<h4>5. <strong>Examining the structural condition of the implant\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Titanium-based implants<a href=\"https:\/\/sheibaninia.net\/en\/%d8%a7%d8%a8%d8%a7%d8%aa%d9%85%d9%86%d8%aa-%d8%a7%db%8c%d9%85%d9%be%d9%84%d9%86%d8%aa-%da%86%db%8c%d8%b3%d8%aa%d8%9f-%d8%a7%d9%86%d9%88%d8%a7%d8%b9%d8%8c-%d8%ac%d9%86%d8%b3-%d9%88-%da%a9%d8%a7%d8%b1\/\"> abutment<\/a> and cover are formed. In regular meetings, the dentist checks the condition of these structures to ensure their health and stability. For example, if the crown is loose or the abutment (the connecting part between the base and the crown) has a problem, the dentist can fix it before it causes further damage.<\/p>\n<h4>6. <strong>Continuous training and advice<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The dentist provides up-to-date training on better methods in every visit to the patient<a href=\"https:\/\/sheibaninia.net\/en\/%d8%a7%db%8c%d9%85%d9%be%d9%84%d9%86%d8%aa-%d8%af%d9%86%d8%af%d8%a7%d9%86-%d8%af%d8%b1-%d8%a7%d9%81%d8%b1%d8%a7%d8%af-%d8%b3%db%8c%da%af%d8%a7%d8%b1%db%8c-%d9%86%da%a9%d8%a7%d8%aa-%d9%85%d9%87%d9%85\/#:~:text=%D8%BA%D8%B0%D8%A7%D9%87%D8%A7%DB%8C%20%D9%86%D8%A7%D9%85%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%A8%20%D9%85%DB%8C%E2%80%8C%D8%B4%D9%88%D9%86%D8%AF-,%D8%AA%D9%88%D8%B5%DB%8C%D9%87%20%D9%87%D8%A7%DB%8C%20%D9%85%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%82%D8%A8%D8%AA%DB%8C%20%D8%A8%D8%B1%D8%A7%DB%8C%20%DA%A9%D8%A7%D8%B4%D8%AA%20%D8%A7%DB%8C%D9%85%D9%BE%D9%84%D9%86%D8%AA%20%D8%AF%D9%86%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%86,-%DA%A9%D8%A7%D8%B4%D8%AA%20%D8%A7%DB%8C%D9%85%D9%BE%D9%84%D9%86%D8%AA%20%D8%AF%D9%86%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%86\"> Implant care<\/a>, provides proper nutrition, and new health tools. Also, in case of a change in the patient&#8217;s oral conditions (for example, new diseases or changes in medications), the dentist can update the care instructions based on the new conditions.<\/p>\n<h4><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6281 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sheibaninia.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/merlin_ai_2024-10-11T20_53_42.279687-e1728668137169.png\" alt=\"\u0622\u0645\u0648\u0632\u0634 \u0648 \u0645\u0634\u0627\u0648\u0631\u0647 \u062f\u0631 \u0645\u0631\u0627\u0642\u0628\u062a \u0627\u0632 \u0627\u06cc\u0645\u067e\u0644\u0646\u062a \u062f\u0646\u062f\u0627\u0646\" width=\"1080\" height=\"664\"><\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>7. Timing and number of references<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>After installing the implant, the schedule of regular visits with the dentist is set. Usually, in the first year, an examination every 3 to 6 months is recommended, because this period of time is very sensitive for the fusion of the implant and to ensure the success of the treatment. After that, the number of visits may decrease to once or twice a year, but these sessions are still necessary.<\/p>\n<h4>8. <strong>Prevention of implant failure<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Studies show that implants that are regularly examined and cleaned by a dentist have a higher success rate. Many cases of implant failure occur due to lack of hygiene or not visiting the dentist regularly. With careful and preventive examinations, the dentist can prevent problems that lead to treatment failure.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 26px\"><strong>Step 3: Proper nutrition<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><strong>Avoiding hard and sticky foods from an expert point of view:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Sticky foods like caramel or hard things like nuts may put pressure on the implant or damage its base. These substances can also cause plaque build-up, which will lead to infection.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Nutritious foods<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Calcium-rich foods such as dairy products and vitamin D are essential for strengthening bones. It is also recommended to consume foods rich in antioxidants and vitamin C for gum health and prevent inflammation.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 26px\"><strong>Step 4: Awareness of danger signs<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Early symptoms of implant problems include the following:<\/p>\n<h4><strong>bleeding gums<\/strong>:<\/h4>\n<p>Continuous bleeding can be a sign of inflammatory gum diseases such as peri-implantitis.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>\u00a0Persistent pain or swelling:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If the dental implant is not properly fused with the bone, or bacteria has infiltrated the surrounding area, the patient may experience pain and swelling. Immediate visit to the dentist is necessary to avoid serious problems.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 32px\">Complications of not taking care of dental implants<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24px\">1. Infection:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Failure to care for dental implants can lead to bacterial infections that may damage the tissues around the implant.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24px\">2. Peri-implantitis: <\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Inflammation of the gums and bone around the implant, which, if not treated, can lead to bone loss and failure of the implant.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24px\">3. Gum lesions: <\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Failure to observe oral hygiene can lead to inflammation and bleeding gums.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24px\">4. Implant movement:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The lack of stability of the dental implant due to bone loss makes the implant unable to work well.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24px\">5. Occurrence of pain: <\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Complications caused by infection and inflammation can cause chronic pain.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24px\"><strong>6. Need for re-surgery:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Failure to take care of the dental implant may result in the need for additional surgery to repair or remove the defective implant.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 32px\"><strong>conclusion<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Dental implant care is essential to maintain its health and beauty.
