Losing teeth affects more than just your smile.
When a tooth is lost and not replaced, the surrounding teeth can shift out of position over time. This changes how your bite fits together, and it can put stress on your jaw joints and remaining teeth.
For adults in Naperville exploring tooth replacement, understanding how shifting affects your candidacy for dental implants in Naperville is an important first step.
A board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon can evaluate your bite, your bone, and your overall oral health to find the right path forward. CBCT 3D imaging gives your surgical team a full picture before any treatment begins.
