Implants have a high success rate, but complications can still surface — infection around the implant, loosening, bone loss, or a prosthetic that was never quite right. Revision surgery starts with a thorough diagnostic workup to find the actual cause, then a tailored plan to save the implant whenever possible rather than starting over.
Book a Consultation
The goal is always to preserve your existing implant investment first, and rebuild only where that's genuinely the better path.
You may be a good candidate if any of the following sound familiar. A consultation will confirm what's right for your specific case.
Before recommending revision surgery, we start with a full evaluation of your teeth and goals, so the plan fits your case rather than a standard script.
Your plan accounts for your timeline, comfort, and priorities, and is walked through with you before any treatment begins.
We take the time to explain each step and answer questions as they come up, rather than rushing through the appointment.
Aftercare and follow-up are part of the plan from the start, not an afterthought once treatment is finished.
Signs include pain, swelling, looseness, or a bad taste near the implant site. Any of these are worth a prompt evaluation rather than waiting.
Not always, but revision surgery starts by trying to preserve your existing implant investment. A full diagnostic workup determines whether repair, regrafting, or replacement is the right path.
Sometimes. If bone loss contributed to the original failure, grafting is often built into the revision plan to prevent the same issue recurring.
Common causes include infection around the implant (peri-implantitis), insufficient bone support, or a prosthetic that wasn't fitted correctly the first time.
It can be, since it starts with diagnosing what went wrong before any new treatment. Straightforward cases may be simpler; others require grafting or staged treatment.
