How to minimize the risk of dental implant failure?

Choose a reputable and licensed medical institution. Avoid clinics without the necessary qualifications. It's an expensive procedure requiring skill and expertise, so it's crucial to invest wisely for higher success rates.

A successful dental implant requires an experienced and skilled doctor to select the appropriate implant and treatment plan. The surgical procedure demands high precision and a team of professionals, including at least one highly skilled dental implantologist and several medical assistants. Choosing a reliable implantologist is crucial.

Our dental implant department is led by a team of masters and doctoral supervisors from Jinan University's School of Stomatology.

They provide dental implant restoration for elderly edentulous patients and those with complex partial or full-mouth tooth loss, helping them regain their chewing ability and earning the trust and praise of citizens in Guangzhou.

Is it worry-free after getting dental implants?

Similar to planting trees or vegetables, dental implants require careful post-operative care. A reliable doctor and institution are crucial for post-operative care and follow-up treatment. Both the surgical procedure and post-operative care are key factors affecting the final outcome.

Routine Precautions

• Do not brush your teeth within 24 hours. Afterwards, gently brush teeth outside the surgical area with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Avoid forceful rinsing. Some blood in saliva is normal; do not panic. If bleeding persists, contact your doctor immediately.

• Maintain a lukewarm diet. Avoid spicy food and alcohol.

• Take antibiotics as prescribed for 3-5 days post-surgery. Take pain relievers as needed.

• Apply ice packs locally for the first 48 hours (do not apply continuously; apply for a few minutes, rest for 10 minutes, then reapply) to reduce swelling and pain.

• Rest for 3-7 days post-surgery. Avoid excessive exercise and strenuous activities.

Post-operative instructions should be followed as advised by your doctor.

Generally, sutures are removed after about 1-2 weeks. After suture removal, you can clean around the implant. A temporary crown is usually fitted before the permanent crown is placed, which takes a considerable amount of time.

Therefore, the success of a dental implant depends on the chosen dental institution, the doctor's experience, the materials used, and the sterilization of equipment and instruments. Post-operative care and proper brushing techniques are also crucial for reducing risks and ensuring better results.
