Does teeth implants cause cancer?

I'm considering getting dental implants for some missing teeth. My neighbour recently said something about them being risky. Does teeth implants cause cancer, or is that just a rumor?

Bro absolutely not. I got two implants done last year and searched the whole internet before the surgery because I was also scared. They use titanium which is completely safe and bio-compatible, so chill out and go for it.

I got my dental implants done almost ten years back when I was losing my teeth. I am absolutely healthy and fine today. Don't listen to these scary internet rumors, they just make you worry for no reason.

Please don't believe these random WhatsApp forwards or weird blogs. If you have concerns, just book an appointment with a proper prosthodontist and ask them directly. They will show you the actual medical facts rather than online rumors.

Actually I was reading about this yesterday only because my mom needs one. From what I found on top medical sites, there is no link at all between dental implants and cancer. They have been doing these surgeries for decades now.

I can only speak from my own personal experience. I have had three implants in my lower jaw for five years now and I've faced zero issues. It is best to talk to your dentist if you have doubts, but for me it was a smooth ride.

Honestly, I had a massive panic attack before my implant surgery thinking about this exact thing. But my dentist explained that titanium is used in all kinds of joint replacements too, not just teeth. It's totally safe and I feel so silly now for worrying.
