Is brushing of teeth required after dental implants?

Dental implants require the same hygiene care as natural teeth.  Dental implants can also develop gum disease, and get infected , specially in diabetics. 

Yes, you need to maintain your oral hygiene so as to prevent infection. You can use electric brush and rinse your mouth properly.

Absolutely will need to maintain your implants with daily brushing as you will still have natural bacteria and minerals in your mouth and plaque>calculus will grow on implants.  Rinsing can benefit the health of the tissue around the implants but will not prevent deposits onto the implant and denture surfaces.  Maybe the dentist can keep you in a implant supra structure system that would allow for better cleaning with a mechanical toothbrush and then see them monthly for a cleaning/implant maintenance.  

Hi:You definitely need to continue to brush your implants so that the plaque that contains bacteria is removed mechanically.  I also suggest to use a Oral Essentials Orignial Mouthwash which contains Dead Sea salt and essential oils as an aide.Best,Dr. Maddahi

Having implants does not absolve anyone from having to care for them, which means brushing them to remove the plaque that forms. You would certainly be healthier after removing your diseased teeth, but the question will be whether or not you should have implants placed knowing you might not be able to care for them. 

Dear Danny, Dental implants have to be maintained or else nasty infections can occur. You do need to brush them daily. Flossing is also important. If you have limited use of your hands, invest in an electric tooth brush and a mechanical flosser. You also need to rinse daily using an antibiotic mouthwash such as chlorhexidine. Xrays of the implants are recommended yearly and having your implants and teeth cleaned four times yearly would also be prudent. Implants are not cheap and you want to protect your investment.
