When a tooth is lost due to trauma, disease or fracture it can be a particularly upsetting experience. Our eyes and our smiles are our first point of communication and when either of these features are compromised, it can leave us feeling self conscious and hesitant. The team at Apple Dental understand the importance of your appearance and specialise in tooth replacement procedures to restore your smile and dental health to its best.
Although the replacement of missing teeth to achieve a healthy and perfectly aligned smile is emotionally significant, it is also important to your overall health and wellbeing. Further to contributing to a variety of oral complications, missing teeth will reduce your ability to eat a range of foods necessary to maintain good general health.
Your teeth are not permanently set in position and therefore rely on each other to prevent them from moving out of alignment. When you are missing teeth, your adjacent teeth can move, rotate and encroach on the vacant space, which may impede some teeth-replacement treatments if not addressed early. These teeth are also much more difficult to clean and therefore encourage decay and become more prone to removal. Many speech problems also develop as a result of missing teeth.
The negative impact missing teeth has on your surrounding teeth and bone also extends to your facial muscles as they too rely on your teeth to maintain their strength and elasticity. In this sense, missing teeth can lead to an appearance of premature aging.
