Improve Your Overall Health by Investing in Tooth Loss Solutions

The most common New Year's resolutions have to do with improving our health and eating better. However, tooth loss can make eating crunchy foods like vegetables daunting, and can also lead to things like indigestion, reduced self esteem and bone loss. Being able to chew normally is imperative to overall health and well-being.

If you have experienced tooth loss you may want to consider dentures, implant supported dentures or dental implants. Missing teeth can affect your ability to bite and chew properly, which can cause you to swallow larger chunks of food than your body can easily handle. This causes undue stress on your digestive system, and can cause chronic indigestion. Missing teeth may also make you more adverse to eating foods that are difficult to chew, such as raw vegetables. Boiling vegetables can make them softer and easier to eat, but also reduces their nutrient content. If you are not getting enough nutrients you run the risk of being malnourished, which can result in a wide variety of serious health problems.

Missing teeth also have a negative impact on the bone density in your jaw. Areas of your jaw that are missing teeth have reduced bone density that can increase with time. Bones with decreased density are more susceptible to breakage. Dental implants and implant supported dentures allow you to stimulate your jawbone while chewing, both stopping and counteracting bone loss.

Missing teeth can also negatively affect your self esteem and self confidence. Dental solutions such as dentures, implant supported dentures or dental implants can help you smile with ease and confidence. They also make it more easy to enjoy social gatherings, which tend to focus on food. By not having to worry about what you can eat and whether or not people will see your missing teeth you can better relax and enjoy yourself as you form important social bonds with friends and family.

By getting dentures, implant supported dentures or dental implants you not only improve your oral health, but your psychological and overall health as well. To help everyone achieve good health, Future Smiles offers financing options so that everyone can experience superior oral health regardless of their income level.
