What Happens When You Lose All of Your Teeth?
Not many of us have a full set of teeth and that’s because of poor dental hygiene, unhealthy lifestyle and pre-existing medical conditions that weaken your teeth. While losing your teeth can be avoided with the right dental practices and proper health management, these are the effects of losing most of your teeth:
Unattractive Aesthetic Appearance
With the face being the first thing that people look at as our identity, it’s the first thing to be noticed. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take care of our physical aspect anymore.
Confidence Loss
It’s hard to smile with missing teeth. You lose confidence when you have something to hide and you are uncomfortable with your appearance. It also affects you social interaction with others when you doubt whether or not to converse so they don’t see the gaps. Although dentures can help you with eating and for some aesthetic reasons, it still doesn’t replace your real set.
Teeth play a very important role in our physical well being. A missing tooth can create gaps between teeth. It can also loosen other healthy teeth which make it hard for us to chew protein-rich food like poultry. Teeth are an asset, so they need to be taken care of properly with regular brushing and flossing and a visit to the dentist.
Unhealthy Indications
A study has shown that some dentures have low chewing performance. This limits an individual’s capacity to chew solid meals and lowers fruit and vegetable intake which contain fiber. Intestinal or stomach problems are mainly caused by low fiber intake.
