It’s also very important to floss your implants. There are several floss products on the market.
It’s best to use unwaxed floss, or dental floss that is designed for implants. This type of floss
protects the tissue around the implant. Flossing regularly keeps debris and bacteria from in
between the teeth and gum line.
It’s also recommended that people with dental implants use oral irrigators. This helps to
eliminate biofilm and plaque and can reduce inflammation. If there are spaces that are hard to
reach with floss, oral irrigators can prove helpful. It’s best to use the irrigator one or two times
a day. If there is any inflammation, an antimicrobial rinse that has been diluted is best.
These specifications could change depending on changes to your health. Continue
communicating with your oral surgeon and dentist to continue getting the right maintenance
tips for your teeth.
