How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants do not have an expiry date. They are as healthy as your own teeth. Their lifespan depends on your oral and dental health. If you take good care of your oral and dental health, your implants might last forever in your mouth. If you don’t take good care of your oral and dental health, your implants will have a shorter lifespan than expected. After having your implants, you have to visit your dentist for an examination after one year. After this examination, you will have to revisit your dentist on their 3rd, 5th and 10th years. This will help your implants to have a longer lifespan.
