Should not
Generally no. Unless there is a manufacturing problem where gaps or crevices can accumulate plaque and or pieces of food and could lead to a bad taste or odor. Infection in the area or swollen gingiva (gingivitis) or periodontal disease can affect taste. A healthy well positioned dental implants should not influence your taste.
Dental implants do not affect the taste. In certain occasions, if you do have numerous mercury or amalgam fillings, that can affect the taste! For more information on dental implants and restoration in Los Angeles, please click here: https://celebritydentist.com/dental-implants/
No
No not necessarily, if they do then I am unaware of that research and have not come across it.
