  1. How Long Do Dental Implants Last? Elite Dental Group • www.elitedentalg.com

  2. Introduction • Dental implants are a reliable method to replace missing teeth. Their longevity is a key consideration before treatment.

  3. What Are Dental Implants? • Titanium screws serve as artificial tooth roots, supporting crowns. They fuse with jawbone through osseointegration.

  4. Longevity of Dental Implants • 95–98% success rate. Often last 10–30 years. Upper jaw implants risk higher failure due to lower bone density.

  5. Longevity Stats • - 95%+ last over 10 years • - Smokers: 2.4x more likely to fail • - Single-tooth implants last longer • - Proper care extends lifespan

  6. Types of Dental Implants • - Endosteal: lasts 25+ years • - Subperiosteal: lasts 10–15 years • - All-on-4: 20+ years • - Mini: 5–8 years • - Zirconia: 25+ years

  7. Comparing implants to other dental treatment • Dental implants outlast dentures and bridges because these require the need of replacement within 5 to 10 years. Bridges totally rely on their neighboring supporting teeth, while dental implants are independent, and do not need support from adjacent teeth. Dental restoration type Average longevity Care required Dental implants More than 20 years Regular check-ups, minimal care with better oral hygiene. Dentures Between 5 to 8 years Need periodic adjustments and recliners, because the bone and structure of the mouth changes naturally. Dental bridges Between 5 to 10 years Need replacements due to wear and tear, and decay in supporting teeth and tissues.

  8. Why Do Implants Fail? • - Poor oral hygiene • - Bone loss or density issues • - Smoking and teeth grinding • - Medical conditions like diabetes or osteoporosis

  9. Signs of Failure • Watch for pain, gum redness/swelling, implant movement, pus, numbness, or loss of taste. See your dentist immediately.

  10. Conclusion • A treatment that is designed to give a permanent solution, but sometimes permanent sounds a little too bold, but can be possible with care and maintenance. First, always choose a dentist who has expertise in handling every possible case, like Elite Dental Group.
