What about middle-aged tooth loss?

Source:Pujing Dental ClinicUpdated on:2022-01-15

The problem of tooth loss is not trivial. Generally, after a tooth is lost, it will affect the stability of the whole tooth and jaw, because the whole jaw is stressed during chewing. Tooth loss not only directly affects the beauty, but also destroys the balance of the whole jaw.

In view of many people's inadequate understanding of missing teeth, I'd like to introduce it to you in detail here. I hope it will be helpful to you.

一、 Harm of tooth loss in middle-aged people

1. The common causes of tooth loss in middle-aged people include periodontitis, deep caries, trauma, etc. in addition to trauma, periodontitis and deep caries show that the overall oral condition of patients is very poor and need to be treated and repaired in time to avoid greater impact.

2. The other is the effect of the destruction of the stability of the overall oral teeth mentioned at the beginning. 

3. If missing teeth are molars and other posterior teeth, it will directly lead to most habitual unilateral chewing, which will lead to facial disharmony and affect personal appearance.

Restoration of missing teeth 

1. First of all, before dental restoration, the patient's oral cavity needs systematic restorative treatment. Those with periodontitis should be actively treated, and those with cavities should also be repaired and filled first. In short, ensure the health and stability of the overall oral environment.

2. As for the specific dental restoration methods, for single missing tooth, the better dental restoration mainly includes fixed denture restoration and implant restoration. In terms of the overall effect of restoration, the gap between the two is not very large, but in terms of service life, implant teeth are far greater than fixed dentures.

3、For specific dental restoration, you can choose according to your actual situation and the recommendation of the dentist. If you have any questions, please call Pujing stomatological clinic: 400-0650-898.
