Potential complications of dental implants

  • Infection: Proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits can minimize the risk of infection around the implant site.
  • Implant failure: This can occur if the implant doesn't integrate properly with the jawbone or if there is excessive force applied to the implant.
  • Nerve damage: In rare cases, dental implant surgery can damage the nerves in the surrounding areas, leading to numbness or tingling.
