Are you worried now about losing more teeth? Your concern is understandable. When you lose a tooth, you also lose the root that anchored it to your jaw. And that right there is why you could lose another tooth further down the road.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s why.<\/p>\n<p>When you lose a tooth root, the part of your jawbone it used to be in contact with doesn\u2019t have a purpose anymore. As a result, it will begin to atrophy. With time, more bone tissue will be affected, increasing your risk of losing one or more healthy teeth.<\/p>\n<p>But there is a way to stop all this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preserve Your Smile with Dental Implants<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re worried about losing more teeth, call <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilesofstyle.com\/\">South Shore Dental Care<\/a> to find out how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilesofstyle.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> can help you stop further tooth loss.
