WHAT CAN HAPPEN IF MISSING TEETH ARE NOT REPLACED BY ARTIFICIAL TEETH ? |
| If missing teeth are not replaced by artificial teeth, the adjacent teeth will over a period of time, lean into the empty space. Food is likely to accumulate between the remaining teeth, providing a breeding ground for bacteria. |
| Irregular spacing also makes cleaning of teeth difficult and leads to formation of tartar. So, removable or permanent artificial teeth that replace missing teeth will help maintain dental health. |
