Dental Implants

Can Other Problems Result from Losing a Tooth?

Yes! Other teeth will start to shift and move, which results in losing them as well. Even one missing tooth can affect the proper ability to chew, which means receiving fewer nutrients from the foods you eat. You may gain weight due to eating softer, higher-calorie foods. The bone loss in the jaw that results from missing teeth changes your appearance to make you look older than your age. Your speech may be embarrassingly affected, too.

We recommend having missing teeth replaced with dental implants. They can replace one or many teeth. They look very natural and function just like real teeth. They will recapture a beautiful smile and return your confidence.
