Mexican dental implants can last a very long time when they are placed correctly and cared for properly. At SOTA Dental, implants are designed to last a minimum of 5 years, and for most patients they last much longer. Many implants last 20 to 30 years or even a lifetime when the patient maintains good oral hygiene, avoids smoking, and keeps up with regular dental checkups.
The durability of an implant depends largely on bone quality, proper placement, and how well the patient follows the recommended care routine. Our surgeons use high quality implant brands and advanced diagnostic tools, which gives your implant the best possible foundation. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, it becomes extremely strong and stable, functioning very much like a natural tooth.
Lifestyle habits are also important. Smoking, untreated gum disease, and lack of maintenance can shorten the lifespan of an implant. When patients follow their care instructions, floss regularly, and return for occasional evaluations, implants placed in Mexico can last just as long as those placed in the United States.
