Peri-implantitis is an advanced form of peri-implant disease that causes inflammation and bone loss, threatening the stability and longevity of dental implants.
Unlike natural teeth, a dental implant will not develop tooth decay. However, in the same way, periodontal disease compromises the support and stability of natural teeth, peri-implant disease jeopardizes the stability and longevity of a dental implant. Peri-implantitis, the more advanced form of peri-implant disease, is characterized by inflammation of the soft tissues and bone loss that can result in eventual implant failure.
If you notice bleeding gums and inflammation around your dental implant, or it feels mobile, it's essential to contact our office for an evaluation and care. With early intervention and treatment, the health and function of dental implants affected by peri-implantitis can often be restored.
Dr. Seamons uses the latest technology and proven methods of care to reconstruct areas of tissue loss to improve the support and health of the gums and bone around the dental implant.
