  1. Reasons Your Dental Implants May Feel Loose Dental implants are meant to be a permanent tooth replacement technique but if they start to feel loose, you might feel frustrated. There are a few reasons why dental implants may become loose. This article will outline why this might happen and what to expect. We will also recommend a solution to this problem. It is, however, recommended that you should contact your dentist immediately after noticing your dental implants are loose. Signs of Loose Dental Implants The following are the symptoms of loose dental implants. It is important to watch out for these symptoms to know when to visit your dentist. ●Feeling pain ●Bleeding when you touch your gum ●Wobbly implants ●Sunken gum due to bone loss

  2. ●Discoloration around your dental implants ●Artificial tooth moving around If you experience any or a combination of these symptoms it is important to seek dental help because these might signify that your dental implants are loose. Never leave these conditions untreated because they can have serious consequences on your overall oral health. Loose dental implants that are left untreated can inhibit bacteria that can cause infection. The infection can also spread to the other areas of your mouth and body which can cause complications. Causes of Loose Dental Implants Though rare, loose dental implants are caused by these common factors. 1. Bone Loss A jaw bone can deteriorate over time and this can make it shrink causing the dental implants to become loose. 2. Gum Disease If you get gum disease, especially around the dental implants it can eat away the jaw bone causing the deal implants to be loose. 3. Loose Abutment The abutment sticks out of the gum and is screwed on top of your implants. The abutment is where your crown is cemented on. In most cases, the abutment might start to unthread from the dental implants and this can make it lose. 4. Loose Crown You might feel like your dental implants are loose but the actual problem is with the crown. They are placed using cement which may break causing looseness. Similar to the loose abutment, a loose dental crown can be treated easily.

  3. Other possible causes of loose dental implants include a weak healing system making the implants to be incorrectly held and hence loose. Other causes include low jaw bone density which makes the dental implants, not bond well.
