Dental implants are an important way for patients to improve appearance and restore function when they have missing teeth. Just like natural teeth, dental implants require daily care to prevent plaque buildup and infection. Some people may find it difficult to keep their dental implant clean, especially when it comes to flossing. Using a Waterpik® water flosser as an additional aid in combination with using regular floss is an effective way to clean around dental implants or even natural teeth, removing stubborn plaque and minimizing bleeding. Your teeth and dental implants play a significant role in your general health keeping them in the best shape possible is an important daily goal!
