It is not easy to adjust to life without natural teeth. It causes a wide range of physical and psychological issues. One might have trouble eating and speaking. People might find it embarrassing to strike up a conversation with people they know and care about with a missing tooth and crooked smile. No wonder the loss of teeth might cause aloofness in an individual.
One’s teeth have an impact on one’s entire body. The body will remain healthy as long as teeth are healthy. Plus, losing a tooth or a couple of teeth means more pressure on the remaining teeth. If the issues are not addressed immediately, the chances of them wearing out early or being lost exponentially increase. Additionally, it causes headaches and jaw discomfort.
While there are few traditional solutions like dentures and bridges, they are not without respective drawbacks. Dental implants are the most excellent choice to replace missing or lost teeth and restore facial beauty in such circumstances.
Due to the missing teeth, the jaw melts away with time. Within the first year after tooth loss, people typically lose 25% of their supporting jawbone structure. Since bone replacement becomes more complex as time passes, dental implants are easier when teeth are first extracted. What’s more, implants function similarly to natural teeth. They protect and maintain bone structure, oral health, and overall appearance. The dentist and implant surgeon at Dakota Valley Oral & Maxillofacial will discuss the options with clients to make the best decision possible about tooth replacement in Apple Valley and Lakeville, Minnesota.
The surgeon replaces the root with a small dental implant before replacing the tooth. Before deciding on an implant, they will assess and evaluate the health condition of the patients.
