About Tooth and Bone Loss
Prevent Consequences of Tooth Loss
Bone deterioration follows tooth loss resulting in collapse of the bone and a caved in appearance, which can compromise facial features.
Soft tissues become thin and recede in response to bone loss, producing visible defects that are difficult to hide.
Implants and ridge preservation grafts should be done when teeth are lost to limit and prevent bone loss.
