Implant Maintenance is a Team Effort

Implant care instructions brochure for patients – now in English language available

The European Association of Dental Implantologists (BDIZ EDI) has published an English edition of its implant maintenance brochure. In easy-to-understand language, the brochure entitled “Implants – longer-lasting and longer beautiful”) offers well-illustrated instructions and general information about oral health. Teamwork of patient and the dental office is the most important aspect of the brochure.

The maintenance brochure is intended for distribution to patients by dental practices and was written to assist them in teaching their patients take care of their dental implants in the appropriate manner. The 24-page patient information brochure in A5 format consists of a general section about oral hygiene and a main section on implant maintenance – all about the right cleaning tools and their use with single-tooth implants as well as fixed and removable implant-supported restorations. “Good to know” provides background information on choosing the right tooth-brush and using the proper brushing technique, describes the process of professional tooth cleaning and educates readers about risk factors.

A checklist intends to alert implant patients to possible changes in the mouth and around the implant. This is the first English edition of the brochure, which has been completely redesigned with large images and short texts in easy language that patients can understand. The preface states: “It is up to you to ensure careful oral hygiene, and this is a prerequisite for a long implant life. Teamwork is of the essence!”
