Why Do I Need A Yearly Check Up For My Implants? 

Dr. Lamb recommends an annual check up with him, to ensure your implant is still osseointegrated with the jaw. That appointment will entail an exam and xray to determine your implant is still progressing as expected and that you aren’t having any complications or challenges with your dental implants. 

Implant Care and Brushing

Dr. Lamb will also ask you to  keep your regularly scheduled six-month routine dental checkups with your general dentist and you should be in good shape for maintaining your dental implants. 

Dental implants look and function just like normal teeth – they should also be cared for like normal teeth! It is very important to realize that anything that can happen to a natural tooth can happen to an implant when it comes to gum disease and bone loss. Good oral hygiene and regular doctor visits are essential to the success of your implant.
