Missing teeth can pose an aesthetic problem, detracting from the overall quality of the smile and producing an undesirable appearance. However, aesthetics are far from the most compelling reason to have missing teeth replaced.

Risks posed by missing teeth include:

"I have a missing tooth. Should I replace it?"

Yes. You should absolutely replace a missing tooth.

Why Replace a Missing Tooth?

Depending on its location, a missing tooth can have a profound impact on the appearance of your smile. This is, however, far from the largest concern. When one or more teeth is missing, a whole host of oral health issues can follow.

A new and improved smile is within reach in 2020 with a smile makeover. Smiling can have many positive effects on mood, social interactions, and even career success. When you censor your smile because you are self-conscious of discoloration, misalignment, or damaged teeth, you may not be living your most vibrant life.
