What Happens If I Don’t Get a Dental Implant?
If you don’t get an implant after a tooth extraction, potential outcomes include:
- Bone Loss: The jawbone in the area of the missing tooth may shrink over time.
- Shifting Teeth: Neighboring teeth can shift into the gap, leading to misalignment.
- Difficulty Chewing: A missing tooth may make chewing more difficult and affect nutrition.
- Alternative treatments like bridges or dentures can help if implants are not an option.
