I have two questions. First, should I have to pay for the ones that fell out? Second, should I be worried about the other implants, especially the loose one. <\/p>\n<p>Susan<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Dear Susan,<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/dental-implant-diagram.jpg\" alt=\"Dental Implant Diagram\" width=\"290\" height=\"293\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-631\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Your choice of getting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/tulsa-implant-overdentures\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">implant supported dentures<\/a> was a good one which, when done properly, will prevent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/facial-collapse\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">facial collapse<\/a>. Obviously, your dentist did not do it properly and I am sorry to hear this happened to you. You have very legitimate questions and concerns. First, you should not expect to have to pay for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/tulsa-dental-implants\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">dental implants<\/a> that fell out. A basic tenant of dental work is that it actually stays in your mouth. Most dentists with dental implant training have a 95% success rate. Your dentist is looking at a an abysmal 50% success rate, with that fourth one already loose. Not only that, most cases of dental implant failure that do happen would take at least a year. Your dentist&#8217;s work didn&#8217;t even last a few days! As to the other implants, I would not hold out too much hope that they are going to stay in. <\/p>\n<h2>Reasons for Dental Implant Failure<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Infection at the implant site. This is often because of poorly fitting fixtures.<\/li>\n<li>Poor bone support. This can be completely avoided by your dentist doing adequate diagnostics. <\/li>\n<li>Cheap dental implant fixtures.<\/li>\n<li>Incorrect placement of the implant fixture.<\/li>\n<li>Premature loading of the denture or dental crown. This happens where there was not given enough time for the bone to integrate with the implant before putting stress on it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Do not pay any more money to this man. You need to get these looked at by another dentist who can tell you what has gone wrong. Don&#8217;t let your dentist choose who gives you the second opinion. You want someone with dental implant experience. However, you might want to choose a dentist from a different city. That way there will be less of a chance that they are friends. The dental world is a small one. <\/p>\n<p>If the second opinion dentist wants the diagnostics and notes from your current dentist, he or she is under an ethical obligation to provide them. <\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tulsa Dentist<\/a> Dr. Ryan Noah. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I got eight dental implants in order to not have removable dentures.
