A dentist will often recommend an implant if you have a missing tooth. While these replacement teeth are quite durable, they can crack on occasion. Why might this occur and how can you protect these implants to extend their longevity?
– Implants can become damaged due to a sudden impact
– If you accidentally bite something very hard you can damage your implant.
