Single Tooth Loss

Tooth loss can occur due to numerous reasons, the most common being dental caries which is tooth decay. Another reason for it is periodontal diseases. Your tooth is held by its roots which are embedded in your jaw bone. Loss of bone structure due to bad oral hygiene and infection can lead to bone loss which eventually leads to receding gums and loosening of teeth.

When a single tooth is lost there is an empty space created in your jaw. When this empty space isn't immediately replaced, the bone in that area will begin to undergo the process of resorption as it is no longer stimulated by the tooth's root. This also means that the remaining teeth can now shift and slide in the mouth because of this availability of extra space. The amount of bone loss and shifting of teeth greatly depends on the tooth which is lost and the individual. Drifting of one tooth can result in drifting of several teeth, ultimately disturbing the oral harmony. When oral harmony is disturbed it disturbs the facial proportions as well. Absence of even a single tooth ruins the smile and doesn't look good. This leads to a person feeling conscious all the time. Often people who are missing teeth will try and not smile so as to not make missing teeth visible.

This empty space also invites a plethora of periodontal disease as now keeping that empty space clean becomes a task. The empty space leads to the other tooth surfaces exposed and the bristles of the brush cannot reach the surface and clean it. This causes accumulation of plaque which with time if not cleaned hardens and becomes calculus. This is a home for bacteria's that will start infecting the bone and lead to more teeth loss. The shifting and eruption of tooth post tooth loss make it difficult to maintain proper oral hygiene which in the long run invites gum diseases and makes it difficult to clean all the pockets which are formed in that area. The problem of food impaction increases greatly which leads to tooth decay and ultimately loss of more teeth.

Another consequence of tooth loss is the impact it has on a person's confidence and mood. With technological advancement, there is no more need to not smile or hide your smile.
