They help us eat and digest food, they make our smile attractive and they keep the face and neck muscles strong and also help prevent untimely wrinkles.  Teeth are not the only thing that keep your smile in top shape, the bones that support them also play an important role. If you have lost any teeth in your upper and lower jaw then it calls for an immediate treatment because ignoring lost tooth can causes loss of bone, infection in nearby teeth and further decay.
