I had a full lower dental implant is there any possibility of lighten the stain in the implants

Q. Hello, I am a 59 year old woman that had a full lower dental implant put in 3 years ago…have had 3 back surgeries since then and my implant hygeine was not good…they are very stained from coffee and tea…is there any product out there that can help lighten these stains? I cannot afford a dentist at this time [hard luck story]…I have a removable top denture that is about 5 shades lighter than my lower implant…very ugly…hope there is something I can begin using, until such time I can afford to walk in the door of a dentist. There has never been any gum bleeding or swelling indicative of infection, so I am extremely grateful for that…any advice would be greatly appreciated. I’m glad I found your web site…it’s great.

A. I’m not sure anything could make a big improvement without removing the implant prosthesis. If it is removable (by you) you could take it to a denture lab to be cleaned. If it is fixed you could try a whitening tooth paste or visit the Hygienist for a good clean and polish
