What Are Failed Dental Implants?

Failed dental implants refer to situations where an implant designed to replace a missing tooth does not integrate successfully with the surrounding bone or encounters complications after initial integration. This failure can be attributed to various factors, including infection, inadequate bone support, implant rejection, or poor healing.

Though dental implants have a high success rate of over 95%, there are some rare cases in which they fail. We understand how a compromised smile can impact your confidence and overall well-being.

Causes Of Implant Failure

We recognize that the success of dental implants is paramount to achieving a confident and lasting smile. Unfortunately, implant failure can occur, and understanding the underlying causes is crucial for providing effective solutions.

1. Insufficient Bone Density

One of the critical factors influencing the success of dental implants is the density and quality of the jawbone. Insufficient bone density can compromise the implant’s stability and integration, leading to potential failure.

2. Infection And Peri-Implantitis

Infections, particularly peri-implantitis, pose a significant risk to dental implants. This inflammatory condition affects the tissues surrounding the implant and, if left untreated, can lead to implant failure.

3. Poor Osseointegration

The process of osseointegration, where the implant fuses with the surrounding bone, is crucial for implant success. Factors such as smoking, compromised blood supply, or certain medical conditions can hinder this process.

4. Inadequate Treatment Planning

Comprehensive treatment planning is paramount for successful dental implant outcomes. Inadequate planning, including improper implant size, location, or alignment, can contribute to implant failure.

5. Poor Oral Hygiene Practices

Patient cooperation is vital for the success of dental implants surgery. Poor oral hygiene practices can contribute to bacterial growth and inflammation, jeopardizing the implant’s stability. Our commitment to excellence extends to addressing these factors providing personalized care to enhance the success and longevity of your dental implants.
