Since we’re approaching the spring months very quickly, most people are getting ready to do their spring cleaning. While scrubbing and vacuuming our homes is important, so is the health of our bodies, particularly the health of your teeth. If you have dental implants, then keeping them healthy and maintained is particularly important. At FastNewSmile®, we’re experts in dental and implant health, we have a few tips to guide you in your spring cleaning.
BUY A NEW TOOTHBRUSH MADE FOR DENTAL IMPLANTS
If you have dental implants, you’re most likely going to need a toothbrush designed specifically with implants in mind. Changing out your toothbrush every few months is incredibly important to how clean your teeth can get. Overtime with lots of use, the bristles on your brush will become worn out and they won’t do their job as well as they should. Our Dallas prosthodontist recommends that you use a brush with soft bristles to avoid damage to your implants.
SEE YOUR DALLAS DENTAL IMPLANT SPECIALIST, DR. ALMASRI
Those who’ve had a dental implant procedure benefit from seeing their prosthodontist every so often to check on the health of their implants. Make it a priority to schedule an appointment with Dr. Almasri this spring to address any questions you have about your tooth implants and to ensure that your implants are still working properly. Though your implants are made from strong titanium and are guaranteed to last a lifetime, it’s still a good idea to make sure they’ve been cared for properly. We’re always happy to have patients come in for a checkup to see how they’re doing!
REVIEW CARE GUIDELINES FOR YOUR NEW IMPLANTS
When you first get new teeth implants, you’re concerned about caring for them and sticking with the recommended guidelines for what you can eat and what you should do to make sure the implants stay in good shape.
However, over time most people tend to get a little bit lazy with caring for their implants. Go back and review the original guidelines your prosthodontist gave you after your implant surgery. Try your best to stick with them and review them often this year.
