Missing a tooth or losing a tooth because of any reason, be it a disease or accidental, is one of the worst things that a person can go through. Not only is that an aesthetic problem where a person loses all of their confidence, but it is also a hazard to your overall health. Missing a tooth can result in the loss of bone mass in the jaw, causing the jaw to slack and the skin of the face to sag.
This happens because the teeth continue to go through a process of grinding and regenerating on their own. With a tooth missing, this process stops and causes serious issues. This is why medical science came up with the brilliant invention of a dental implant. It replaces the missing tooth and root with a titanium post and a dental cap. This completes the set of teeth and resumes the regeneration process inside the jaw, keeping this in shape. But how is this done?
