A Reliable Solution For Tooth Loss

Smiling mexican woman in glassesIf you have recently lost one of your teeth, you know how frustrating adjusting to its effects can be. You may experience a more aged appearance or attract unwanted attention to the new gap in your smile. When your loss is a front tooth, you can have difficulty tearing your food when you bite. Consequently, losing a molar reduces your ability to grind your meals.  When not treated promptly, this problem can lead to cavity formation and infection as your remaining enamel wears down from the pressures of an unevenly distributed bite. To prevent further complications, explore your options to restore your missing tooth. Your Riverside, CA dentist can evaluate the health of your mouth and suggest a prosthetic solution to return your full smile. By placing a dental implant, we can return your bite by securing a restoration to a post inserted directly into your jaw.
