The maintenance of dental implants is divided into two parts:
2. Perioperative maintenance, that is, from implant implantation to restoration, is a simple and generalized perioperative period. After implant implantation, some uncomfortable symptoms may appear, such as inflammatory reaction, swelling and pain. The main maintenance method is to give anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics or some detumescence drugs according to the situation. Second, do a good job in oral hygiene maintenance, and use some mouthwashes containing pharmaceutical ingredients when necessary to promote the recovery of periodontal tissue.
3. Post-maintenance after repair. The upper structure of the implant has been put into the mouth, so the implant should maintain its normal chewing function, which is also divided into two parts. The first is fixed denture. Fixed dentures around the implant should be cleaned according to dental floss, tooth washer and interdental brush. When necessary after meals, you can also choose some mouthwashes to use according to your personal situation. There is also the maintenance of overdentures, which requires patients to learn how to choose and wear overdentures. After the overdenture is removed from the mouth, the patient must clean the upper prosthesis with a toothbrush. Dental floss or interdental brush should be used to clean the food residue and soft dirt around the implant and the upper attachment in the oral cavity.
