Missing teeth may cause you to appear more aged due to bone loss. They can also cause the movement of surrounding teeth and the gums to shift and shrink away from your remaining teeth. With this loss of alignment, your teeth can over-erupt or come out of their socket to attempt to close the space.
If you wait too long and lose too much bone density, your jaw muscles shorten to accommodate the reduced space between your nose and your chin. Dental implants near you are a great option to stop the ageing process and restore your facial structure, stop the movement of surrounding teeth and give you back your ability to chew.
