Flossing around dental implants is essential for keeping the surrounding gums and bone healthy. Although implants can’t develop cavities, plaque and bacteria can still build up around them, leading to inflammation or peri-implantitis if not cleaned properly. Using implant-safe floss, interdental brushes, or a water flosser can help clean hard-to-reach areas effectively. Daily flossing and regular dental checkups are key to protecting your implant investment and maintaining long-term oral health.
