Dental implants in West Auckland are designed to last a lifetime. A dental implant consists of three parts: a titanium screw-like post, a connector piece, and an artificial tooth. The implant post is biocompatible and eventually joins with your jawbone, becoming a part of your mouth’s anatomy. So, that part of the implant is permanent.
However, the artificial tooth or teeth attached to the implant post might require replacement after a decade. A good rule of thumb is that the better your care for your oral health, the longer your dental restorations and prosthetics will last.
That’s why we always encourage patients to brush and floss daily, eat a balanced and nutritious diet and visit the dentist for routine exams and cleans.
