Why Replace Missing Teeth?


The loss of a tooth can lead to many scenarios, some occurring instantly, others taking years to appear.



  • An unsightly gap may be present
  • Loss of chewing efficiency
  • Tilting of the adjacent teeth leading to food packing, resulting in gum disease, and eventual problems with these teeth unless the ultimate in oral hygiene is practiced
  • The remaining teeth carry an extra load in chewing, often leading to these teeth wearing faster and fracturing, particularly if they are heavily filled
