Dental implants are one of the best investments you can make in your smile if you have one or more missing or failing teeth. They are the only permanent option and restore over 99% of biting and chewing power for normal eating. They also look incredibly natural and are custom-made to fit your smile. You most likely want to do all you can to ensure your dental implants remain healthy long-term. Be sure to stay on the look-out for these common symptoms of a failing dental implant:
- Gum swelling or bleeding around the dental implant
- Severe pain at the site that doesn’t go away
- Receding gums around the dental implant post
- Shifting, wobbly, or mobile dental implant
