Missing teeth affect the chewing function, esthetics as well as speech. Difficulty in chewing due to absence of teeth results in problems related to swallowing, digestion, lack of proper nutrition, weight loss and ultimately poor health. Missing teeth can replaced by removable teeth using partial of complete dentures or fixed teeth using fixed bridges or dental implants. Removable dentures are also durable and esthetic, available in a variety of materials, thanks to the advances in dental material sciences.
