Remember,
a healthy restored tooth is always better than an artificial
one.
The choice is yours, but there are many disadvantages to losing
a tooth. When a tooth is removed and not replaced, the teeth
next to the empty space begin to shift from their normal position.
This may cause teeth to become crooked or crowded, which decreases
chewing and biting efficiency.
Crowded
or crooked teeth may be more prone to dental disease because
they are harder to keep clean than properly aligned teeth.
As a result, other teeth may be lost if the missing tooth
is not replaced.
