Dental implants are one of the most reliable and long-lasting solutions for tooth replacement. However, maintaining them requires consistent care and professional support. At SoJo Dental, our experienced dentists, Dr. Brian Call and Dr. Conner Ogden, provide expert dental implant maintenance in South Jordan, Utah. Our approach combines modern technology, personalized attention and a commitment to your long-term oral health.
Dental implant maintenance ensures that your implants stay secure, functional and aesthetically pleasing for years to come. With regular check-ups and specialized cleanings, our team helps prevent complications such as gum inflammation or implant failure.
What Is Dental Implant Maintenance?
Unlike natural teeth, dental implants are not susceptible to cavities. However, they still require routine care to prevent issues like peri-implantitis (inflammation of the gum and bone around the implant). Our dental implant maintenance services include:
- Thorough inspection of implant stability and gum health
- Professional cleaning with tools designed for implant surfaces
- Personalized oral hygiene guidance and recommendations
- Monitoring for signs of wear, bone loss or implant stress
Our dentists and team use gentle, precise techniques and offer individualized plans tailored to your oral health history, lifestyle and goals.
Step-by-Step Maintenance Process
- Comprehensive implant exam to check for wear or gum issues
- Targeted cleaning around the implant using non-abrasive instruments
- Use of antimicrobial rinses to reduce bacteria and inflammation
- Review of home care habits and personalized maintenance tips
- Discussion of any needed follow-up care or additional treatment
Each visit focuses on prevention and education, helping you protect your investment in a healthy, functional smile.
Why Maintenance Matters
- Detects early signs of potential problems, preventing costly repairs
- Protects surrounding gum tissue and bone structure
- Supports overall oral health and long-term implant success
- Reinforces confidence through consistent, professional care
When paired with proper brushing, flossing and regular dental visits, implant maintenance greatly reduces the risk of future complications.
