At Aura Dentistry & Spa, we understand that dental implants are a significant investment in your smile. Just like natural teeth, implants require regular maintenance to prevent complications such as plaque buildup, gum disease, and peri-implantitis. Our expert team in Renton, WA, specializes in comprehensive dental implant maintenance to ensure your implants stay strong, healthy, and functional for years to come
Dental implants may not be susceptible to cavities, but they can still develop plaque and bacteria, leading to potential complications. Without proper care, peri-implantitis—a condition similar to gum disease—can develop, causing bone loss and, in severe cases, implant failure.
Routine professional check-ups and cleanings help prevent these issues, ensuring that your dental implants remain in top condition.

Using specialized instruments, we gently and thoroughly clean around your implants, removing plaque and bacteria that regular brushing and flossing may miss.
Early detection of inflammation or infection is key. We assess your gums and treat any signs of peri-implantitis to prevent implant failure.
We use advanced digital X-rays and 3D imaging to check for any bone loss or structural issues, ensuring that your implants remain securely in place.
We educate our patients on the best techniques and tools to maintain their implants at home, including:
Avoiding habits that can harm implants (e.g., smoking, grinding teeth)

Yes! Just like natural teeth, implants can accumulate plaque and tartar, which can lead to gum inflammation and infection if not properly cleaned.
Peri-implantitis is a serious gum infection that can cause bone loss around the implant. Prevention includes good oral hygiene, professional cleanings, and avoiding smoking.
While some general dentists can clean implants, it’s best to visit an experienced implant specialist like those at Aura Dentistry and Spa to ensure proper care.
Without regular maintenance, plaque buildup can lead to gum infections, bone loss, and potential implant failure—costing more in long-term repairs or replacements.
