Failed Dental Implant Repair in Towson MD
At Implant and Surgery House in Towson MD, we specialize in diagnosing and treating failed dental implants. While dental implants have a very high success rate, complications can occasionally occur due to infection, bone loss, implant overload, or improper positioning.
Dr. Genc has extensive experience in implant revision surgery and failed implant repair, helping patients restore both function and confidence with advanced surgical techniques.
If you are experiencing pain, looseness, or infection around an implant, early evaluation can often prevent further complications.
Signs of a Failed Dental Implant
Common symptoms of implant failure include:
• A loose or moving implant
• Pain or discomfort around the implant
• Swelling or infection of the gums
• Bone loss visible on X-rays
• Difficulty chewing
If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to seek professional evaluation as soon as possible.
Why Do Dental Implants Fail?
Dental implant failure can occur for several reasons:
• Peri-implantitis (implant infection)
• Insufficient bone support
• Excessive bite pressure
• Implant malposition
• Poor healing or medical factors
At Implant and Surgery House, we carefully analyze each case using advanced 3D imaging to identify the exact cause and determine the best treatment approach.
