Aspire Dental Addresses Patient Concerns: "Can Dental Implants Get Infected?"

Henderson, NV - [ 21-04-2025 ] - Aspire Dental, a leading dental practice in Henderson, Nevada, dedicated to providing advanced dental implant solutions, is addressing a common patient question proactively: "Can dental implants get infected?" Recognizing the importance of patient education and long-term implant success, Aspire Dental is providing clear and informative resources on this topic.

Dental implants are a highly successful and durable option for replacing missing teeth. However, like any surgical procedure, there is a potential risk of infection, known as peri-implantitis. This condition affects the gum and bone tissues surrounding the implant and can compromise its stability if left untreated.
Aspire Dental emphasizes that while the risk of implant infection is relatively low, understanding the contributing factors and preventative measures is crucial.

Potential causes of dental implant infection include:

Poor Oral Hygiene: Inadequate brushing and flossing allow bacteria to accumulate around the implant.
Peri-implant Mucositis: Inflammation of the soft tissues around the implant, which can progress to peri-implantitis.
Smoking: Smoking impairs healing and increases the risk of infection.
Systemic Health Conditions: Conditions such as diabetes can impact the body's ability to heal.
Surgical Complications: Although rare, issues during implant placement surgery can increase the risk of infection.
Dr. Christopher Capener, DDS, at Aspire Dental, stated, "Patient education is paramount in ensuring the long-term success of dental implants. While implants boast a high success rate, understanding the potential for infection and how to prevent it is vital. At Aspire Dental, we provide thorough pre- and post-operative instructions to minimize this risk."
Aspire Dental stresses the importance of meticulous oral hygiene, regular professional cleanings, and adherence to post-operative care instructions to prevent implant infections. Early signs of disease can include redness, swelling, pain, and bleeding around the implant. Prompt detection and treatment are crucial for managing potential issues and maintaining the health and longevity of the dental implant.
Patients considering or currently living with dental implants are encouraged to contact Aspire Dental in Henderson, Nevada, for comprehensive information and guidance on maintaining optimal implant health.
