What is the life span of dental implants? Is there any way to extend the service life?
There is no accurate figure to determine the life span of dental implants.

According to experts, dental implants are a popular way to improve tooth loss. Generally speaking, the average life span of dental implants is eight years. According to American ADA clinical standards for dental implants, the five-year preservation rate of dental implants should be about 95%, and the ten-year preservation rate should be about 85%.

It can be seen that the service life of dental implants is longer than that of traditional fixed restorations. In developed countries, the five-year survival rate of people who have undergone dental implant surgery is above 95%, and the ten-year survival rate is around 90%, but these figures only reflect the average level. The tooth life after each dental implant is not only related to the quality of treatment, but also to the physical condition and maintenance of beauty lovers.

Want to prolong the life of dental implants need to pay attention to:

1. Protecting the root: Within three to six months after the dental implant is taken out, patients should pay attention to protecting the artificial root, and cannot chew hard to avoid loosening the root and affecting the newly formed bone around the root, thus affecting the implant effect.

2. Ensure oral hygiene: After artificial tooth root implantation, patients should pay attention to ensure oral hygiene, rinse their mouths in time after meals, or rinse their mouths with liquid medicine, and clean the implants with a soft brush or cotton swab every morning and evening.

3, gradually increase the hardness of chewing food: after dental implant surgery, we should pay attention to gradually increase the chewing hardness of food, so as to avoid the impact of external forces on teeth, causing damage to the root, once the root is injured, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment immediately.

Extended data:

Dental implants, like natural teeth, are composed of many parts, but all parts of natural teeth are organically combined, and dental implants are connected by screws or adhesives. Regularly check whether there are problems in various parts of dental implants so as to repair them in time.

As long as oral hygiene is well done and regular examination is carried out, artificial dental implants can last as long as real teeth. Dental implants have a periodontal relationship similar to that of natural teeth, which requires special implant scaling and conventional scaling around natural teeth. So as to maintain the long-term stability of the dental implant.
