 3 Tips for Healthy Dental Implants Atlanta, GA
Dental Patients

Dental implants are an excellent way to replace missing teeth, but they can also be beneficial for the bone and teeth adjacent to them. Properly cared for, dental implants can last you a lifetime, so it’s important to keep them clean and your supporting tissues healthy. Here are three tips to keep you on track:

1) Brush Your Implants Twice a Day
Just like natural teeth, your dental implants require regular brushing to keep them clean. When you brush, it’s important to be gentle and use a soft-bristled brush so that you don’t irritate the gums next to them. An electric toothbrush works well, too. Focus on the gumlines in particular and be sure to brush for a minimum of two minutes at a time.

2) Floss at Least Once a Day
You’ve heard it a million times, but how many of us actually floss daily? If you want to stay on top of your oral health, flossing once a day is an absolute must. Even with dental implants. Flossing removes plaque from between teeth and under gums where brushing can’t reach. And it’s not just our mouths that benefit—regularly removing plaque prevents gum disease, which can lead to implant complications further down the line.

3) Visit Your Dentist for Regular Checkups
Regular dental visits are essential to maintaining your overall oral health as well as your dental implants. Not only can we treat problems before they get out of hand, but we’ll also offer advice on maintaining healthy bone and gum tissues, which support your dental implants.

If you’re considering getting implants, make sure you schedule regular checkups with our dentist in Atlanta. A visit every six months will help ensure that both you and your implant(s) will remain in good shape for years to come.

Dr. Zelby was recommended to me by both my dentist and periodontist. I could not agree more. the kindness, caring, and professionalism that I experienced at Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry of Atlanta is above and beyond. I highly recommend Dr. Zelby, his assistants, and the staff. I couldn't be happier with my new teeth and wish I had done this years ago! five stars to you guys

Catherine W.

Everything about my experience was enjoyable. I felt like the practice used all of the most advanced and best technology out there which gave me a wonderful feeling of confidence. They were very professional and straight forward and I have never had a better dentistry experience. I'd highly recommend checking them out if you're looking for a new dentist. They're friendly and efficient and they really do know what they're doing there.

Meghan D.

Dr Zelby has been my dentist now for almost 17 years. Not only is he a really nice person, his dentistry is completely top notch. If you need any restorations, I don't think that there is another place to even consider. You'll be amazed with his work!

Brian S.

Dr. Levine was great, and Dr. Zelby stopped by and answered some questions I had about sheering forces on enamel. They were both very friendly, and the hygenist (whose name I forget, unfortunately) gave one of the most thorough cleanings I've ever had. The office was clean, the devices all seem shiny and well maintained, and overall it was a great experience

Benjamin S.

After going to another dentist, doctor Zelby was able to fix my front two teeth so that the front two teeth were back to the same length and color. I'm so thankful he was able to make them look normal again. Dr. Zelby and his staff are so pleasant to be around as well. I highly recommend this office if you have a major problem with your teeth that need to be fixed. He can get it done and he will make sure you are happy.

Carrie G.

I had been going to the same dentist for many years and switched to Aesthetic and Implant recently. My experience with Dr Levine was incredible. I cannot be happier with the decision I made. The cleaning and other services I received were well above and beyond any other I have ever had. Highly recommend this practice to everyone!

Matthew G.

Couldn't be happier! Absolutely worth the travel time. Dr Zelby is without doubt the best - caring, knowledgeable, reassuring and very professional. Couldn't ask for better dentistry. Staff also very competent and professional. Beautiful, clean environment

Diane W.

Megan is the best dental hygienist I’ve ever had. She does a phenomenal job keeping your teeth clean, is super nice, and makes you feel right at home. The whole staff is very friendly and I couldn’t recommend this place enough!
