teeth replacement
In our culture, a nice smile is part of the "dress code". Missing teeth can have a significant and negative impact on how people perceive you. Missing teeth are quite common in the US. So common in fact that the average adult is missing up to 7 teeth and the percentage of adults with no teeth is 10%.
When teeth are missing, the remaining teeth take a heavy tole and will be more prone to other problems due to increased pressure on them. Once one tooth is lost and not replaces, it typically beings a vicious cycle of tooth loss.
There are 3 ways to replace missing teeth:
• Dental Impants
• Fixed Bridges
• Removeable Dentures either Partial or Complete
