Tooth implants: Tooth Implants are a functional and cosmetic replacement for someone who has had teeth or molars removed. It can be done at any age, although patients with underlying conditions will need to have clearance from their Dr. The process is done under anesthesia and the tooth implant is attached to the bone via a special type of dental screw.

Missing teeth: When a tooth is extracted and not replaced, the other teeth absorb additional biting forces that may cause them to break down prematurely. In addition, the surrounding teeth will shift, causing an uneven chewing surface and potential periodontal issues.

Don't wait: Think what happens when you remove one stave from a barrel, collapse. Same thing happens when a tooth is lost, dental arch collapse. Speak wit your Den test about replacing the missing tooth. Best choice will probably be an implant and crown. Delay is not our friend making treatment at a future time more extensive/expensive/complex.
