Patient education campaign

The campaign launches amidst negative press commentary regarding the apparent growing public misconception questioning the value of dental implant surgery and the viability of long-term success rates.

Dentalcareplus has created an educational leaflet and free dental cleaning kit advising and supporting patients on their critical role in maintaining dental health and their commitment to a rigorous after-care plan.  

The ‘Keep Smiling’ leaflet outlines five key steps patients should follow to promote long-term implant success including regular hygiene therapy, dental check ups with their local dentists and attending Dentalcareplus’ three year post-completion implant review program.  It clarifies that, as with natural teeth, a higher incident and likelihood of failed dental implants could ensue in the absence of these steps.

The leaflet also provides general tips for cleaning at home and identifies the key contributing factors to failed implant treatment. The ‘Keep Smiling’ dental cleaning kit consists of travel toothpaste, a travel tooth brush and inter-dental brushes and will be provided to all patients upon treatment completion to support their at –home after-care efforts to maintain total oral health.
