Is There a Problem with Missing Teeth?
Yes! There can be more than one problem caused by absent teeth. Due to bone loss, your face can take on a sunken look over time, adding years to your facial appearance. Speech is not always clear and can cause embarrassment. Your ability to chew food properly is diminished, so you will not absorb as many nutrients as you should. Easier-to-chew foods may become part of your daily diet, resulting in unwanted weight gain. Having even one missing tooth can cause adjacent teeth to shift and loosen.We recommend dental implants to replace missing teeth. They come up through the gums, look very natural, and function like your own teeth. They recapture a beautiful smile and remedy all the problems due to missing teeth.
