A Patient-Centered Strategy for Managing Failed Dental Implants

Dealing with the complications of failed dental implants can be a daunting and distressing experience. Physically, it can lead to discomfort, difficulties in chewing, and an unsatisfactory appearance. Implant failure often brings about increased sensitivity, persistent pain, and issues with everyday activities like eating and speaking.

Beyond the physical issues, the emotional toll can be significant. Patients may experience feelings of disappointment, frustration, and a loss of self-confidence. Our implant dentist, Dr. Fernando Quevedo, recognizes these challenges and is dedicated to resolving implant failures. His expertise ensures that you can regain both the functionality of your implants and the confidence that comes with a successful treatment outcome.

Custom Treatments for Implant Failures

Our method for tackling dental implant failures revolves around a patient-focused approach to identifying and resolving the root causes to achieve optimal oral health. We begin with a detailed examination, utilizing advanced diagnostic tools to identify the factors leading to implant issues accurately.

Our treatment options are diverse and may involve enhancing osseointegration with bone grafting, correcting the positioning of implants, or adjusting the number of implants as needed. We prioritize personalized care by customizing treatment plans to suit each patient’s unique requirements.

Debridement surgery, also called implant rescue surgery, is designed to save dental implants at risk of failing due to infection. In this surgery, Dr. Quevedo utilizes specialized instruments to remove plaque, tartar, and infected tissue from the implant site and the surrounding areas, both above and below the gum line. This thorough cleaning process eliminates harmful bacteria that could otherwise damage the gums and bone, potentially leading to gum and bone loss and, ultimately, implant failure.

When dental implants fail, removal and replacement become necessary to restore oral health and functionality. The failing implant is carefully extracted to prevent further damage to the surrounding bone and tissues. After removal, a healing period allows the site to recover before placing a new implant. This approach ensures the new implant has a stable and healthy foundation for long-term success.
