A missing tooth? Dental Care Implants
 Losing
a tooth by accident or by extraction is not the end of the matter.
When a tooth is missing, the resulting gap will allow nearby teeth
to tilt or drift from their normal position, and the teeth above the
gap will move downward. Aside from the obvious cosmetic problem, the
changed positions of these teeth can lead to severe bite problems
causing jaw pain and headaches.
Missing teeth should be replaced to keep other teeth in their
normal position. This can be done by means of a fixed bridge or a
dental implant. Both of these treatments offer a good functional and
cosmetic result.
Please call our office with any questions you may have about the
benefits of replacing missing teeth with bridges or dental implants.
