1. Yes, hyperventilation can affect hearing and vision. 2. No, dental implants can not unless the person is anxious and then hyperventilates. So this becomes a mental issue. 3. No. These types of dental implants can not attract oxygen. Otherwise all of us who have them would have similar problems. 4. Perhaps the size can affect breathing. Talk to your dentist.
