Failing, Missing, or Knocked Out Teeth Out Teeth Care Near You

Teeth that are failing, missing, or lost due to injury can affect more than just the appearance of your smile. When a tooth is damaged or missing, surrounding teeth may shift, bite alignment can change, and the jawbone may begin to weaken over time. These changes can lead to discomfort, difficulty chewing, and additional dental concerns if not addressed.



Restoring or repairing teeth helps support proper bite function, protect neighboring teeth, and maintain overall oral stability. Early evaluation allows Dr. Blackwell to recommend appropriate treatment options focused on preserving oral health and supporting long term function.

Preventive care and prompt attention play an important role in reducing the risk of tooth loss. Wearing protective appliances during sports or for teeth grinding may help prevent damage. Addressing discomfort, looseness, or changes in a tooth early can often help prevent further complications.



In the event a tooth is knocked out, seeking immediate dental care is important. Routine dental visits also allow potential concerns to be identified early, helping reduce the risk of future tooth loss and supporting long term oral health.
