Missing teeth can be troublesome for a number of reasons and we strongly recommend considering tooth replacement treatment if you have gaps in your smile. We offer a range of options and will be happy to discuss potential solutions during your consultation. Here are just some of the reasons you should think about replacing missing teeth:

Better oral health

Losing teeth can have a negative impact on your oral health because sockets tend to attract bacteria and the remaining teeth can be harder to clean. By replacing missing teeth, you can enjoy healthier teeth and gums.

Improved speech

Your teeth play an essential role in the formation of words and sounds and losing teeth can affect the clarity of your speech and your ability to pronounce certain sounds. Investing in tooth replacement treatment can help to improve the quality of your speech, which will also have benefits for your confidence, especially in settings where you are required to speak in public or meet people face to face.

Improved aesthetics

Missing teeth impact the look of the smile. Studies show that people who have missing teeth are considered to be less attractive than those with a full set of healthy teeth. If you’re unhappy with the look of your smile, this can also have a negative effect on confidence, as you may feel self-conscious when your smile is on show and you may feel less attractive. Replacing lost teeth with natural-looking prostheses can really make a difference to the way you look and feel.

Improved facial aesthetics

Your teeth act as supports for your lips and cheeks and if you lose a significant number of teeth, this can cause the cheeks to sag and this makes your face look older. Tooth replacement not only gives you a stunning smile, it also rejuvenates your facial aesthetic, helping you to look and feel younger.
