Although it is much more difficult than with all dentures, if not brushed well, the gums around the implants can become inflamed later on. Therefore, oral hygiene should be at the highest level.
Every surface of the teeth should be brushed for at least 2 minutes. Brushing technique should be in the form of sweeping movements, first with circular movements from the gingiva to the tip of the tooth.
Especially at night, the acidity of the mouth increases and mouth dryness occurs. For this reason, brushing before going to bed should never be interrupted.
There is no gingival papilla between the implant and the normal tooth. Because the patient had the implanted area removed long ago, the papilla filling the gums disappeared. For this reason, the spaces between implants or between the implant and the tooth should be cleaned with special interface brushes or mouthwashes with pressure water jets.
Regular dental check-ups every 6 months should not be interrupted.
