Healing Abutment
This is temporary cap protects the implant, allows the gum to form a healthy contour around it, and prevents food and bacteria from getting trapped in the implant site. After the gum tissue has healed, the healing abutment is replaced with a final abutment for the crown or prosthesis

Teeth are more than tools for chewing. Each tooth acts like a pillar that helps maintain the natural height and structure of the face. When teeth are lost, the support system weakens, and the lower third of the face begins to collapse.

Teeth are more than tools for chewing. Each tooth acts like a pillar that helps maintain the natural height and structure of the face. When teeth are lost, the support system weakens, and the lower third of the face begins to collapse. This collapse makes the cheeks look sunken, the lips lose fullness, and wrinkles form earlier — creating a prematurely aged appearance.

The effects go far beyond chewing and nutrition. Tooth loss disrupts how the jaws fit together, leading to imbalanced forces during chewing. Over time, this not only reduces the ability to eat certain foods but also places stress on the jaw joints and muscles, contributing to discomfort and further functional problems.

Bone loss is the hidden consequence. The roots of natural teeth stimulate the jawbone, keeping it strong. Once teeth are missing, that stimulation disappears, and the bone starts shrinking. This bone resorption accelerates facial collapse, making a person look older than their actual age. It’s a gradual process, often underestimated, but medically well-documented in dentistry.

In short: losing teeth is not just a dental issue — it’s a health and appearance issue. Protecting natural teeth preserves nutrition, speech, confidence, and the youthful balance of the face.
