Living without teeth? Modern solutions for a better quality of life
Are you living life to the fullest? Edentulism is a serious condition that diminishes your quality of life. Millions of people suffer from tooth loss for various reasons such as illness, genetics, accidents, and inadequate dental hygiene. Losing your teeth can lead to poor nutrition, as it becomes challenging to eat a broad, balanced diet. Individuals who have teeth missing or who wear loose dentures frequently report feeling self-conscious in public or on social occasions. This can lead to hiding from the public gaze, especially around mealtimes where they feel unable to enjoy the food or participate fully when sharing a meal with others. Tooth loss leads to bone loss, which alters the shape of the face. Without the stimulating effect of teeth chewing on the jawbone, it contracts. This visibly shrinks the lips and jawline making you appear older. Without teeth the jawbone continues to recede. As a result the fit of loose dentures continues to change and requires messy adhesives and repeated adjustments to retain stability. Without a secure placement dentures wobble and shift causing abrasion, making it difficult to eat many foods and even affecting speech.
Dentures are not the only answer False teeth have been around for millennia. Humans have fashioned all sorts of materials together in an attempt to eat in order to survive. Over the centuries they have been made of everything from bone to wood, that resulted in ill-fitting, painful, noisy tooth substitutes. Things improved in the last century with the advent of resins. Conventional dentures can now be made to look very natural. Fit and function have been improved, but they fall short of natural teeth. A full denture affects speech and taste, and though it restores the ability to chew, it does nothing to retain the bone.
Smile broadly, speak confidently and eat freely Enjoy life to the fullest thanks to modern implant solutions. Implant-based full mouth restorations combine the optimum aesthetics of loose dentures with the additional stability and comfort that allows you to chew your food with confidence. Gone are adhesives, impaired taste, slipping, abrasion, clicking and awkward speech. And they are more attractive than conventional dentures.
