Having a complete smile is one way to make sure you look your best. Missing or damaged teeth can be embarrassing; and if you are missing an entire dental arch, your face can take on a sunken appearance, making you look older than you truly are. There are health considerations as well. For example, if you have a lost tooth, the jaw bone in that area begins to deteriorate. Spaces in your teeth give plaque and bacteria more places to accumulate, leading to gum disease and possibly decayed or lost teeth. An untreated cavity or other damage can result in the need for a root canal or even an extraction if an infection sets in. Finally, by restoring your missing teeth, you will be able to chew your food more effectively and speak more clearly.
