Tooth loss has far-reaching effects on your health, mental well-being, and quality of life. Without our teeth, we encounter great difficulty eating and speaking. Moreover, an incomplete smile has profound psychological effects on a person. The trauma of tooth loss can leave people feeling depressed, isolated, and helpless.
Fortunately, there are ways to address tooth loss that are superior to methods and techniques of the past. In the past, most people relied on conventional dentures for multiple/total tooth replacement. While conventional dentures are still helpful, they can perform better when stabilized by permanent prosthetics like dental implants. Dental implants are used to secure dentures in place. This will prevent prosthetic teeth from moving during an oral function.
