Replacing Missing Teeth
Cherrywood Dental • Oct 18, 2013
Replacing missing teeth is something we bring up often on our blog. But while you may be familiar with the how of replacing missing teeth, it’s also important to be aware of the why. Patients replace their lost or damaged teeth for countless reasons, but there are a few overarching motivations that speak to the changes a newly whole smile makes. Read on to discover the emotional and health-related effects replacing missing teeth may have on your own life. Our Woodbridge dentists have brought many patients happiness with dental implants, and would love to show you how tooth replacements could help you.
Ways Replacing Teeth Affects Patients’ Lives
- Improved confidence – After replacing a missing tooth, your smile will look incredible. And while looks aren’t everything, they do have a significant effect on the way we feel about ourselves. Once your smile is whole again, you’ll find that you feel better than you have in years. Your confidence will affect every part of your life, making you a happier and more positive person.
- Boost in social and professional performance – With a full smile, you’re ready to show your teeth off. This leads to an increase in smiling and a fresh enthusiasm to engage in conversations and discussions. You will see yourself responding well in both social and work situations.
- Stronger oral health – When you have spaces in your mouth, those areas are susceptible to decay and disease. The small, dark areas foster bacteria growth, causing oral problems. Replacing missing teeth will take away those spaces and improve your dental and periodontal health.
- Renewed abilities – After years with a missing tooth/teeth, you may have forgotten what it’s like to speak and chew with ease. Replacement teeth will renew your ability to do so and make daily activities simpler, removing frustrations.
