Why replace a missing tooth (teeth)?

When teeth are removed, the bone that surrounds them subsides quickly and loses its volume. Bone and jaw atrophy can cause significant problems:

One or many teeth

• remaining teeth can be displaced
• higher risk of gum disease
• wear of remaining teeth
• discalcation of adjacent teeth causing the root and teeth to become more sensitive.

All teeth

• digestive problems caused by insufficient mastication
• malnutrition and increased health risks
• speech troubles
• painful and unstable prosthesis
• jaw articulation problems
• facial deformation
  • sagging of face muscles
  • wrinkles and hollowing of cheeks
  • forward displacement of the mandible (more prominent chin)
  • decrease of distance between the nose and chin

The loss of teeth can not be overlooked. It is essential to replace missing teeth
