What is the best way of cleaning dental implants?

Brushing and flossing doesn't prevent the denture tast.

What is the best way of cleaning dental implants?
I like to hear that you are brushing and flossing, but you might care to try using a WaterPik

with some mouthrinse mixed with water to flush out all of the areas around the implants you have. You need to use the Pik on a lower pressure setting as not to traumatize the tissue by forcing the fluid into the area at the gum margin. You can also use a proxybrush

Just make sure that the wire of the proxybrush is coated with plastic so it doesn't scratch the implant.





Hope that helps!
