If you’ve had a tooth removed and aren’t sure what to do next, you’re not alone. Many patients don’t realize that the next decision they make can affect not just their smile, but their long-term oral health. The good news? Dental implants are often the most stable, natural, and long-lasting option—and in most cases, they’re the preferred choice.

What Happens If You Do Nothing?

• Adjacent teeth can begin to shift into the empty space, affecting your bite and alignment.
• The jawbone beneath the missing tooth may begin to shrink (a process called bone resorption).
• Delaying replacement may increase the complexity or cost of future treatment.

Why Patients Choose Dental Implants

• They feel and function like natural teeth
• They help preserve bone and prevent shifting
• They don’t damage adjacent teeth
• They’re designed to last for decades
