Dentition loss has a significant impact on the patient's facial changes and masticatory function, and is a potential pathological state. Over time, it will lead to the absorption of the alveolar ridge, the flattening and thinning of the oral mucosa, the decrease in the tension and elasticity of the masticatory muscles, resulting in the disorder and pain of the temporomandibular joint, and the enlargement of the tongue and other harmful changes. Psychological factors have a huge impact. Therefore, the complete loss of dentition should be repaired as soon as possible.
