For standard implant maintenance, you should make an appointment with the Rockaway Dental Center three to four times per year within the first two years. Dr. Helfand and our team will check the appearance of the implants, and your occlusion (bite), and take x-rays to ensure everything is in stable, working order. If within the first two years, you are problem-free with your implants, you should expect to visit the office for maintenance ONCE every year.
