Failing Implants Rochester
Specialist care for failing implants at Smileology in Rochester
What causes implant failure?
Dental implant failure is rare, but it can happen in some cases.
Common causes of implant failure include infection around the implant (peri-implantitis), insufficient jawbone to support the implant, smoking, poor oral hygiene, or problems with the implant placement.
Sometimes an implant may fail immediately, while in other cases it fails after several years of functioning well.
If you are experiencing pain, swelling, or movement in an implant, it is important to seek professional help immediately.
The team at Smileology in Rochester has the expertise to diagnose implant problems and recommend the best course of action.
Types Of Dental Implants
Single dental implant
This is a good solution if you have one or two missing teeth or are looking to replace one or two teeth that are in very poor condition.
All-on-4 / Full Arch Implants
Worth considering if you have many missing teeth or no teeth at all, this treatment replaces a full arch of teeth using just 4 dental implants.
Dentures
Implant-supported dentures give your denture a stable, secure fit by anchoring it to dental implants, so you don't have to worry about it slipping when eating or speaking.
Failing Implants
If an existing implant is loose, infected or no longer functioning well, we can assess the cause and provide treatment to save, replace or restore it.
Multiple Implants
If you have several missing teeth, this option uses two or more implants to support a bridge, replacing multiple teeth without touching healthy neighbouring teeth.
Symptoms of a failing implant
It is important to recognise the signs of a failing implant so you can seek treatment quickly. Warning signs include:
Pain or tenderness around the implant.
Swelling or inflammation of the gums around the implant.
Bleeding or discharge from the implant site.
The implant feeling loose or moving.
A bad taste or odour around the implant. Visible pus or infection around the implant.
If you experience any of these symptoms, contact Smileology in Maidstone immediately for an urgent assessment.
