No dental procedure is 100 percent foolproof, but there are things both patients and dentists can do to minimize problems. Dental implants have become the standard for tooth replacement over the years. As a result, they’re safer, better, and last longer than in years past. In order to have a good outcome, work with your dentist to make sure they have all the information they need about your medical history and health and what’s happening post-procedure. Together, you can make sure you avoid the most common problems with your dental implants.
