Why do implanted teeth hurt after how many years? | What is the cause of implant pain after a few years?

Pain of an implanted tooth after a few years may occur for several reasons. Some of these reasons are:
- Analysis and bone loss around the implant
- Inflammation or infection of tissues around the implant (peri-implant)
- Unbalanced pressure caused by excessive chewing or improperly made dentures
- Failure of prosthetic components (such as loose screw or abutment failure)
- Nerve damage or stimulation of the nerves near the implant
Scientific studies have shown that one of the most important causes of long-term problems is chronic inflammation around the implant (peri-implant), which can cause bone loss and eventually cause pain.

What is the most common cause of implant pain after a few years?

The cause of implant pain after a few years is usually related to problems that gradually develop around the implant. It is important to know that an accurate diagnosis should always be made by a gum and implant surgeon, as each patient has a unique situation. In the following, we mention the most common reasons:

Could it be due to infection?

Yes, inflammation or infection around the implant (peri-implant) is one of the most common causes that can lead to bone loss.

Can bone loss be the cause of pain?

Yes, the gradual loss of bone around the implant increases the pressure on the metal root and causes pain.

Do prosthetic problems cause pain?

Yes, screw loosening or crown misplacement can put abnormal pressure on the implant.

Are oral habits like teeth grinding effective?

Yes, excessive pressure caused by bruxism (grinding teeth) will damage the implant over time and cause pain.

Therefore, any type of pain that occurs after years, needs a specialist examination and treatment by a doctor to prevent more serious complications.

When is implant pain a concern?

In general, it is normal to feel a little pain or short-term discomfort after dental treatments, but if implant pain persists or occurs after several years, or is accompanied by symptoms such as gum swelling, bad breath, bleeding or purulent discharge, this condition can be a sign of infection or bone loss and should not be ignored.

Also, if the pain becomes more severe over time or is felt more when chewing and biting, it is necessary for the patient to refer to a gum and implant surgeon as soon as possible. Timely action can prevent the development of the problem and even the loss of the implant.

Methods of treating implanted tooth pain after several years

In the face of implanted tooth pain after several years, most effective treatments include medical and professional interventions, and home treatment alone is usually not enough. The main goal of treatment is to remove infection or inflammation, clean the surface of the implant and restore damaged tissues. Depending on the severity of the problem, treatment may be non-surgical or surgical.

Common treatment methods
- Mechanical debridement and cleaning (non-surgical debridement): Removal of plaque and biofilm around the implant with manual or ultrasonic tools is usually the first step of treatment. (source)
- Antibiotics (local or systemic) in case of infection: Depending on the condition, topical antibiotics may be used or, in certain cases, a systemic prescription may be prescribed. However, the evidence about the effectiveness of systemic antibiotics in the treatment of peri-implant surgery is limited. (source)
- Prosthetic repair or replacement (covers or screws): If the problem is due to poor construction or loose parts, repair or replacement of the cover or screws can relieve undue pressure. (source)
- Corrective surgery (flap, bone regeneration or pocket reduction): When the inflammation is deeper or the pocket around the implant has increased, surgery is required for direct access, cleaning the implant surface and rebuilding the surrounding bone. (source)
Important note: Home remedies (such as gargling with salt water or simple pain relievers) may be effective in temporarily reducing symptoms, but they are not enough to solve the root of the problem. Only a specialist in gum and implant surgery can make a correct diagnosis after careful examination and determine the best treatment plan.

How to prevent implant pain in the future?

To prevent the cause of implant pain after a few years, it is necessary to follow some simple but very important points. Regular brushing and flossing, use of mouthwash and complete oral hygiene will keep the area around the implant free of plaque and inflammation.

Periodic visits to the gum and implant surgery specialist help identify and treat possible problems in the early stages.

Quitting smoking also plays an important role in the health of the bones and tissues around the implant. You should also be careful with excessive pressure when chewing or grinding your teeth, as these habits can damage the implant over time.

Following these recommendations assures patients that their implant will function optimally for years without pain or problems.

Finally, it should be said that the cause of implant pain after a few years can be related to various factors such as gingivitis, bone loss or prosthesis problems, and only a gum and implant surgeon can make an accurate diagnosis and provide the best treatment.
