FAQ: How Long Do Dental Implants Last?

How Long Do Dental Implants Last?

Dental implants typically last 20 to 30 years or more, with many lasting a lifetime when properly cared for. The titanium implant fixture integrates with the jawbone and is highly durable, often outlasting the attached crown or prosthetic tooth, which usually needs replacement every 10 to 15 years due to wear. At Elonix Dental Clinic, we use state-of-the-art technology to ensure the longevity of your implants.
