Michigan’s Leading Solutions for Failed Dental Implants

Dental implant failure can happen due to several factors, such as infection, insufficient bone support, or improper placement. Early detection of any warning signs and swift professional intervention are key to protecting your oral health.

Several factors can contribute to the failure of dental implants, including:

• Peri-implantitis: An infection around the implant site.
• Insufficient Bone Density: A lack of adequate bone support for the implant.
• Poor Oral Hygiene: Inadequate care that leads to infection and inflammation.
• Smoking: Tobacco use, which increases the risk of implant complications.
• Chronic Diseases: Conditions like diabetes that can impair healing and affect implant success.

Early recognition is crucial for prompt treatment. Key symptoms include:

• Persistent Pain or Discomfort: Continuous pain at the implant site.
• Noticeable movement suggesting poor integration with the bone.
• Swelling or Inflammation: Ongoing redness and swelling around the area.
• Difficulty Chewing: New challenges with biting or chewing that weren’t present before.

At Michigan Implant Clinic, we offer a comprehensive range of solutions to address failed dental implants and restore your smile:

• Comprehensive Evaluation: Our specialists perform a detailed examination to pinpoint the exact cause of the implant failure.
• Infection Management: For peri-implantitis, we clean the affected area and may prescribe antibiotics to eliminate infection.
• Bone Grafting: When insufficient bone support is an issue, bone grafting can strengthen your jawbone, providing a solid foundation for a new implant.
• Implant Replacement: If an implant is damaged or improperly placed, we can remove it and replace it with a new, accurately positioned implant.
• Advanced Imaging: Using state-of-the-art imaging technology, we ensure precise diagnosis and meticulous treatment planning.

• Daily Brushing: Brush twice a day using a non-abrasive toothpaste.
• Regular Flossing: Floss daily to effectively remove plaque.
• Routine Dental Visits: Schedule professional cleanings and check-ups every six months.
• Diet Considerations: Avoid hard foods that might damage your implants or prosthesis.
• Night Protection: Use a mouth guard if you grind your teeth at night.

The cost varies based on the complexity and extent of the required treatment. At All Michigan Implants, we customize each treatment plan, whether it involves infection management, bone grafting, or implant replacement to best suit your needs. Financing options are available to help make these necessary procedures more accessible and affordable.
