In addition to dentures and bridges that have been\nrelied on for many years to give patients back dental function, patients may\nalso have the option of dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Health dangers of not replacing missing teeth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients may be astounded by the high number of problems that\ncan arise from losing teeth. Some of these issues are not immediate but can\ncause major problems down the line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The risk of teeth shifting is greatly increased when gaps in\nthe dental arch are left open. Teeth that move out of position may result in\nchanges in bite function, poor oral hygiene because awkward spaces make teeth\nthat much harder to clean and can contribute to the onset of gum disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A patient may also see a change in the shape of their face. A\ngreat concern to dental practitioners about not replacing missing teeth is\ndeteriorating jaw bone density. Each component in the dental arch has a role to\nplay as part of a well-run unit. Roots of teeth anchor teeth to the jawbone,\nproviding reliable stability but also serves a second equally important\nfunction \u2013 providing stimulation to keep the jawbone growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In tooth loss, the roots are lost and so disappears the\nstimulus needed for the jawbone to remain healthy and strong. One missing teeth\nreplacement device that succeeds in mirroring the function of natural teeth\nroots are dental implants \u2013 a benefit that has promoted them as the go-to\noption for dental practitioners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The risk of not meeting one\u2019s nutritional requirements is\nanother consideration. Being limited to only certain foods due to lost teeth,\nthese patients often find that changes in bite means they can no longer enjoy a\nhealthy varied diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no escaping the devastating effect teeth loss has on the ability to smile. A confident smile is a strong social cue that helps us connect with each other. Take away this ability and many areas in one\u2019s life can suffer. A warm smile is the quickest way to persuade others about one\u2019s friendliness, approachability and acceptance. A hearty smile spreads joy around, not only in others but within oneself too. Many research studies have linked smiling to benefits for mental and emotional health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step forward to improved oral health and to loving your smile once again is to schedule a consultation. Give our front desk a call to book a consultation with <strong>David Madruga<\/strong> to find out how missing teeth replacement devices can improve your overall health and the quality of life you lead. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apart from improving dental aesthetics, do you know why replacing missing teeth Marylebone really matters?
