2. Floss Once Per Day To Remove Stubborn Food Particles
You should also floss at least once per day to remove food particles and bacteria buildup between your teeth and your dental implants. Flossing removes debris that can’t be removed with brushing alone.
And if you want to take it a step further, consider using mouthwash after you floss. Mouthwash helps clean and sanitize your mouth, and rinses away debris that’s been loosened by flossing.
3. Quit Smoking, Vaping, And Oral Tobacco Use
If you smoke, vape, or use other kinds of oral tobacco like chewing tobacco, you should quit. Tobacco use of any kind is associated with a much higher risk of dental implant failure, cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer.
If you’ve just invested in one or more dental implants, quitting tobacco use is the best way to make the most of your investment, and protect your dental implants for the long term. Consider quitting, and talk to your doctor if you need help with smoking cessation.
