Long-term care

Check-ups, hygiene and follow-up with your dentist at home.

• How do I clean implants and veneers?

  Brush twice daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive paste, clean between teeth every day with interdental brushes or a water flosser, and keep six-monthly hygiene appointments. Around implants, cleaning below the gum line matters more than brushing pressure.

• How often do I need check-ups?

  Every six months for hygiene and once a year for a clinical review of implants, including an X-ray after the first year. These can be done by your dentist at home; send us the report and we keep your file up to date.

• Can veneers or crowns be repaired later?

  Yes. A chipped composite can be polished or repaired chairside, and a single damaged porcelain unit can be remade without redoing the whole smile, because each unit is recorded in your digital file with its exact shade and shape.
