Ideally, brush twice daily with an electric toothbrush, then use a Waterpik or other water flosser to clean all your teeth, with extra time spent on the gums around the implant. Daily cleaning around the gums of the implant is critical for long-term success.

Be careful near the surgical site. But you can brush normally

Brushing and flossing as normal. Treat them as regular teeth. A waterpik helps too for flushing out any stuck food around them. Best wishes, Dr. Totonchi
