Smoking raises the risk of complications when implanting teeth

Smoking causes poor wound healing in the mouth

The German Prudent initiative warned that smoking increases the risk of complications when implanting teeth, as it causes poor wound healing in the mouth, and should therefore be abandoned as much as possible when rooting the teeth.
The dental health initiative showed that the risk of losing the implant is twice as high among smokers compared to non-smokers, noting the importance of proper care to maintain long-term dental implantation, with good cleaning, especially in the area of ​​natural age.
In addition to cleaning the implant twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, the spaces between the teeth should be cleaned every day by the thread and brush to clean the dental cavities.
