When a tooth𦷠is removed, it can have an impact on different aspects of oral function, such as the ability to chew, speak clearly, and maintain proper teeth alignment. Here are some results that can negatively impact your oral health and lifestyle:
β’ Impaired Chewing: Chewing can momentarily become difficult following tooth extraction, especially with foods that are harder or chewier.
β’ Speech Impediments: The absence of teeth can affect speech, leading to difficulties in articulation or pronouncing specific sounds.
β’ Bite Alignment: Tooth extraction can affect alignment of your bite, resulting in malocclusion or alterations in the way your upper and lower teeth come together.
Luckily, you can simply consult with your dentist after tooth removal. We can keep an eye out for any problems with your dental health and suggest solutions like bridges or dental implants.
Your oral function may be momentarily impacted by tooth extraction, but you can reduce the effects and promote long-term oral health.π For customized advice and assistance, get in touch with our dental office.
