What information should I bring about my dental implant?

If available, bring your implant identification card, implant manufacturer and system information, previous X-rays, surgical and restorative records, information about the implant crown or bridge and records of any previous implant complications.

Do I need an implant identification card to receive maintenance?

No. A dentist can still evaluate the implant and surrounding tissues without an implant card. However, implant identification may become important if a prosthetic component needs to be removed, tightened, repaired or replaced.

Why does the implant manufacturer matter?

Different implant systems may use different implant-abutment connections, prosthetic screws, drivers, abutments and restorative components. Identifying the manufacturer can therefore be useful when mechanical or restorative treatment is needed.

Should I bring old dental X-rays?

Yes, if available. Previous X-rays may provide useful historical information and allow comparison with current findings. The dentist can then determine whether any additional imaging is clinically indicated.

Do I need new X-rays if I already have old ones?

Not automatically. The need for new imaging depends on the age and quality of the previous images, current clinical findings, symptoms and the information needed for diagnosis or monitoring.

What if I do not know which implant brand I have?

You can still have the implant examined. Bring any partial information you have, including previous X-rays, treatment summaries, invoices, implant cards or the name of the clinic where treatment was performed.

Can my previous dentist send my implant records to my new dentist?

Depending on the clinic and the applicable rules in the country where treatment was provided, you may be able to request copies of your dental records and radiographs. Keeping your own digital copy can be helpful when moving internationally.

What if I cannot obtain any previous implant records?

A new dentist can still perform a clinical assessment and establish a new baseline for future monitoring. The absence of historical records may limit direct comparison with the past, but it does not prevent evaluation of the current condition.

Does PreBeau Oral Care place new dental implants?

No. PreBeau Oral Care focuses on maintenance, evaluation, peri-implant care and selected management of existing dental implants. It does not place new implants.

Can I discuss overseas implant records in English?

Yes. International patients can discuss previous implant treatment, available records, X-rays and ongoing maintenance directly in English with Dr. Kuniyasu Mori at PreBeau Oral Care in Akasaka, Tokyo.
