Unlike dentures and bridges, they fuse with the bone to become a more permanent part of your mouth, and usually last longer as a result.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But these restorations aren&rsquo;t completely invincible, and they might fail if you don&rsquo;t take the proper precautions. With that in mind, continue reading to learn about 3 changes you make to your daily habits and routines that can help support your new teeth!<\/p><!--more--><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change #1: Clean Your Teeth Consistently<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dental implants aren&rsquo;t made from the same organic components as your enamel, so there&rsquo;s no need to worry that they&rsquo;ll develop cavities. However, your remaining teeth and gums are still susceptible to disease and decay, and bacteria in your mouth can infect the surgical site, causing peri-implantitis, which is the leading cause of failure.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thankfully, you can help prevent this with a consistent twice-daily at-home dental hygiene routine. If you don&rsquo;t already, you should brush and floss your teeth and restoration(s) twice daily to remove harmful plaque and residue that might otherwise harm your dental health. Just be careful not to press floss so deeply into the pocket of your implant that you break its protective seal.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change #2: Get More Vitamin D<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know that you may be more likely to experience dental implant failure if you&rsquo;re vitamin D deficient? This fat-soluble nutrient is essential for your body&rsquo;s ability to absorb key ingredients, such as calcium and phosphorus, from the foods that you eat so you can build strong, healthy teeth and bones. Without enough of it, your jaw might not produce enough new bone material to fuse with your new tooth correctly, which increases the risk of failure.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The easiest way to improve your vitamin D levels is to go for a 20-minute walk on a bright, sunny day, because the ultraviolet rays of the sun triggers your skin to generate it. However, you can also consume it by eating foods with naturally high vitamin D, such as egg yolks or fatty fish, or incorporating more fortified options, like cereal or orange juice, into your daily diet. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change #3: Eat a Wholesome Diet<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to eating foods that provide more vitamin D, you can also include other smile-friendly foods in your meals each day to support your restorations. For example, calcium-rich dairy products, such as milk, yogurt, or cheese, help strengthen your enamel and jawbone to protect your dental health. You can also enjoy more citrus fruits and leafy greens high in vitamin C to support the connective tissues holding your dental implant in place.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few positive lifestyle changes can be a simple, effective way to help preserve your dental implants!<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meet the Author<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. S.
