There are lot more people those who enjoy the benefits of dental implants. However, a very minor portion of the people faces this failure. So what are the factors contributing to the failure of dental implants?

Ø      Uncontrolled diabetes

Ø      Changes in bone metabolism which are abnormal

Ø      Congenital disorders

Ø      Self medication problems

Ø      Poor hygienic habits

Ø      Smoking

All the above said factors will play an influential role in minimizing the effects of the treatment. The patients who have got problems like this must inform the implant surgeon prior to the surgery. A tailor made treatment plan can be developed to channelize it.

There are certain cases where the implant can prove wrong during the initial phases of the healing procedure. This can happen when osseointegration occurs or during the crown is affixed. The factors contributing to the early failures of the dental implants are:

Ø      Any kind of overheating of the bone during the surgery

Ø      Applying too much of force when they are fixed

Ø      Lack of force when they are fixed

Ø      Contamination when the treatment takes place

Ø      Any kind of infection that takes place

Ø      Epithelial cells in the osteotomy site

Ø      Bones losing their strength

Ø      Poor compliance and treatment procedures

Ø      Implant rejection from the titanium rod

The late failures will have only few reasons which can be like maintaining poor oral care and over alcohol consumption. Some people might love to bite hard items always which will decrease the life span of the rods placed.
