If you have two teeth missing right by each other will it affect your jaw or appearance??


Question: I had a tooth pulled 10 years ago and now the tooth by that gap is really bad infected and needs to go, they are jaw teeth, will this make my face sink in or hurt my jaw?
Answers: Your age will influence how much impact the absence of the teeth will have. What can happen due to a gap is other teeth move, throwing off your bite (how your jaw fits ). It might not cause you any problems or your bite could become misaligned enough to cause pain. Your dentist should be able to advise you.
