WHY THE NEED TO REPLACE MISSING OR LOST TEETH?

Tooth roots support bone:
When even a single tooth is lost the bone shrinks because of the loss of function of the root. When many teeth or an entire arch of teeth are lost, this deterioration is accelerated and will make a person look much older

Dentures effects on bone loss:
Because partials and dentures rest on top of the jawbone placing pressure in these areas this loss of bone is accelerated over time complicating the loss associated from not having the teeth in the first place. Many denture wearers will become “dental cripples” after years of wearing dentures with virtually no way of having implants because of the significant loss of jawbone.  We recommend that you not wait!  The sooner you pursue implant placement the better your chances of a strong and stable bite.

Implants support and help maintain bone:
The dental implant severs as a replacement for the tooth root. The function then placed on the implant supports the jawbone preventing bone loss. The sooner an implant can replace a missing tooth the less bone will be lost.
