Why is aftercare necessary?

    Harmful bacteria

Bacteria in the mouth fall broadly into beneficial, neutral and harmful bacteria.
Beneficial bacteria play a helpful role in the mouth, while harmful bacteria cause inflammation and cavities.
Neutral bacteria side with whichever group is dominant.

When harmful bacteria multiply in the mouth, gum inflammation, cavities and bad breath become more likely.
Because an implant is an artificial restoration placed in the gums, neglecting care creates an environment where harmful bacteria thrive.
