Tooth Loss Can Cost More than Just Money

Most people when meeting someone automatically make an unconscious assessment on the person they are interacting with.  Generally they are looking at your face and a large component of your countenance is represented by your teeth.

If your teeth are dirty, yellow, out of alignment or missing you project a definite image.  Maybe one that is not too positive.  Studies have shown that people who are missing, especially anterior teeth are more challenged when interviewing for a position especially if the job you are applying for requires interaction with the public.  Missing teeth can also affect your ability to speak clearly or pronounce words correctly.

Poor looking or unhealthy teeth in addition to gum disease which also affects your general health can nosedive your confidence.  When you look better you generally feel better and if you feel good you come across with more positivity.  Studies have found that teeth and smiles are the second most important attraction feature.  Unfortunately many people with visible tooth loss resist smiling due to lack of confidence.
