Bone Loss Implants
What if I don’t get a dental implant?
I am missing a premolar at the lower jaw around the area of mandibular canal, where a nerve passes through. All I am concerned about is damage to that nerve, which may result in permanent numbness. I am 20 right now, so I was wondering, how rapid would the bone loss be in case I do not get a dental implant?
Would the bone loss only be in the mandible region below the tooth, and even if there is bone loss, how would it affect an individual’s life? I also read somewhere that the bone in the region will eventually deteriorate and maybe replaced by dense connective tissue, if that is so, again, how would deterioration of bone below only one tooth affect an individual’s life?
bone loss only matters if you are going to replace the tooth later (when you will need the bone you lost to screw an implant into) or if it gets severe enough to hurt the teeth next to it– which it will, eventually.
What will happen is mesial drift: your teeth behind the missing one will shift and cause a disruption in your bite.
Paresthesia is usually reversable, and clears up in like 6 months usually. Seriously, I wouldn’t be afraid of that you are young and with a practiced dentist you will be fine!!!
