Overall Health
Consequences of Missing Teeth

Your oral health is a complex system that plays an important role in your overall health. When missing teeth are left missing, or dentures don’t fit properly, there are many things that happen, most of which occur below the surface:

  • Without the support of the tooth, surrounding teeth will begin to shift and rotate which can cause serious problems for your bite and TMJ.
  • The underlying jawbone will begin to deteriorate which can be detrimental for the rest of your teeth and your facial structure (sunken face appearance), and may prevent you from being able to get implants later.
  • It can be hard to enjoy your favorite foods and eat a healthy, balanced diet, which is essential for your overall health.
  • Your confidence and self-esteem suffer with an incomplete smile, and it can be hard to enjoy social situations as you used to.
  • Oral health problems can cause a lot of undue stress and anxiety, which we all know are some of the worst things for your overall health and wellbeing.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are the #1 recommended tooth replacement solution – by doctors and patients alike. Why? Because unlike other restorations that only replace the crown of the tooth, dental implants replace the root of the tooth, which is an essential component for a healthy, functioning smile.

Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically inserted into the gums and allowed to fuse with the jawbone, becoming a fully integrated part of your oral health system. Once healed, dental implants serve as anchors for restorations like crowns, bridges or implant supported dentures.

The benefits of dental implants include:

  • Preserve oral health
  • Prevent jawbone deterioration
  • Replace missing teeth
  • Stabilize bridges & dentures
