The Advantages of In-Office Teeth Whitening
Do you look in the mirror and see darker stained teeth when you smile? Well you’re not alone. Unfortunately the passage of time and our love of coffee, tea, and red wine means that as we get older our teeth become less white, less dazzling, and less attractive. But the good news is that this can often be reversed.
The Consequences of Tooth Loss
When children’s deciduous teeth fall off, it does not usually cause a huge concern. Baby teeth will always give ways for the growth of the permanent ones. However, when adults lose their permanent teeth, it becomes an entirely different story.
Losing a permanent tooth can be natural, especially as you become older. Tooth loss can also be due to a number of factors such as: genetics, general health pproblems, dental and oral health issues, excessive too wear, or even trauma caused by unfortunate accidents.
Having missing teeth causes significant changes in the appearance of your smile. Instead of being nice and elegant, other might see your smile as funny or even unpleasant. Moreover, tooth loss does not only affect the aesthetic quality of your smile. It can also create certain disturbances in other aspects of your life in general. Truth is, if not given proper attention, tooth loss can be so much worse than it looks.
Other Consequences Of Tooth Loss
When a tooth has been knocked out from its rightful place, the remaining teeth shift towards the direction of the space where the tooth used to be. This shift leads to changes in the bone that provides support for your facial structures. As a result, your face would appear much older than your actual age.
