People who live in North York, Ontario, know how important it is to have a winning smile. Besides being the first thing people notice, our smiles make us feel better. The act of smiling has been scientifically shown to improve mood and even alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Unfortunately, things that affect our smiles can happen in life, and one of those things is missing teeth. You can lose a tooth because of decay, but people also lose teeth because of injuries and accidents. Dental implants can restore your beautiful smile.
Dental implants consist of titanium screws placed directly into the jawbone. Once the implant is firmly in place, the implant will function just like your natural teeth.
If you lose one or more teeth, it affects much more than just how your smile looks. When you have missing teeth, any of these things can happen.
Besides the physical problems when you’re missing a tooth, your smile will make you feel self-conscious and even embarrassed. When people start to feel self-conscious, they tend to limit their interactions with others, which can lead to depression and loneliness.
If you’re missing one or more teeth, you have a few different options for replacing them.
