Planning to get dental implants? Eat these nutrients to boost bone density.

If you are undergoing implant or orthodontic treatment, make sure to eat nutrients that help increase gum bone density.

 

Dr. Park Kyung-ah, director of Alps Dental Clinic, stated, "In the case of dental implants, some bone may be lost as it is absorbed during the process of the implant bonding with the gum bone," adding, "Even during orthodontic treatment where teeth are moved arbitrarily, an inflammatory reaction can occur in the gum bone as the teeth gradually shift."

 

However, because of the pain caused by the dental appliance, only soft foods are eaten, which often leads to nutritional imbalance. If you are deficient in vitamins D and K and calcium After the implant procedure is completed, the gum bone and the implant do not properly bond.

Since orthodontic treatment involves using braces to move teeth and straighten them, the teeth tend to weaken easily. Therefore, taking a multivitamin supplement from the time the braces are attached until the treatment is finished can help strengthen your teeth.

 

Before and after dental implant surgery, it is recommended to take vitamins and calcium, which are effective in increasing bone density in the gums. Calcium is the most important component of bones. It is advisable to choose calcium citrate, which has a fast absorption rate in the body. Vitamins D and K help calcium adhere well to bones during formation and are effective in preventing calcification caused by calcium excess.

 

 

Director Park Kyung-ah said, "If you undergo implant surgery for a long period, you must also be careful of inflammation caused by tartar if oral hygiene is not properly maintained," adding, "Thorough hygiene management, such as brushing your teeth, is essential, and consuming calcium and magnesium, which help prevent periodontitis, is also effective."
