Is it just all about The Aesthetics?

Great question — replacing missing teeth is about more than just appearance. Here are the key reasons:

Missing teeth can make it hard to chew certain foods, leading to poor nutrition or digestive issues.

When a tooth is lost, the surrounding teeth may drift into the gap, leading to crooked teeth, bite problems, or difficulty cleaning them properly.

Tooth roots stimulate the jawbone. Without that stimulation, the bone in that area starts to shrink (a process called bone resorption), which can change your facial structure over time.

Missing teeth can affect how you pronounce certain words or sounds, especially with front teeth. You can speak more confidently again!

Teeth help support your cheeks and lips. When they’re missing, your face may appear sunken or aged.

Many people feel self-conscious about missing teeth, which can affect their social life, career, or overall self-esteem.
