While drinking a hot cup of coffee, you noticed that your implant feels really sensitive. Just like with any other dental procedure, some mild discomfort is to be expected after getting implants. Even so, prolonged periods of extreme sensitivity warrant a visit to your dentist as soon as possible. Read on to learn about a few things that can cause sensitivity in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aestheticdentalspa.net\/implant-dentistry.html\">dental implants<\/a> and how your dentist can help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sensitivity at the Implant Site<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Though it\u2019s rare to have problems with dental implants, it can still happen. Sensitivity that stems from the implant site is likely caused by peri-implantitis. This condition occurs due to bacteria that form in the gums around the implants damaging the gums and teeth. It\u2019s characterized by inflammation in the connective tissue and causes sensitivity, redness, and bone loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sensitivity from the Surrounding Tissues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The sensitivity could also be due to issues with surrounding mouth tissue. A few common ones include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Infection<\/strong> \u2013 If the gum tissue around an implant is infected, it can become swollen and sensitive to stimuli.<\/li><li><strong>Cavities or other dental damage <\/strong>\u2013If one of the teeth next to your implant is cracked, decayed, or has worn enamel, the inner layers of the tooth may be easily irritated.<\/li><li><strong>Tissue or nerve damage<\/strong> \u2013 Though it\u2019s rare, an implant that\u2019s been placed in the wrong location, angle, or depth in someone\u2019s mouth can damage the nerves and cause sensitivity.<\/li><li><strong>Allergies<\/strong> \u2013 Most dental implants are made from titanium alloy. Titanium allergies are rare, but they can lead to adverse reactions.<\/li><li><strong>Impacted food <\/strong>\u2013 If food gets caught between your dental implant and one of the teeth next to it, the pressure this exerts may lead to sensitivity.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Your Dentist Can Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re experiencing any new dental sensitivity after having your implants placed, make sure to let your dentist know as soon as possible. Without treatment, the problem might get worse and lead to more severe issues and the need for extensive corrective procedures. Left untreated, this may even lead to implant failure. Your dentist can examine your mouth and determine what\u2019s causing the sensitivity. It\u2019s often caused by minor issues, such as small cavities or impacted food. If the problem is more serious, your dentist will work with you to determine what the best option is to correct the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sensitivity in dental implants shouldn\u2019t be ignored. If you\u2019re experiencing discomfort, it\u2019s important to let your dentist know as soon as possible so they can determine the cause and administer the treatment you need to get your smile back on track!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are missing teeth making you feel less-than-confident in the look of your smile?
