If you are missing a back tooth which isn't really visible, you might not feel like it's a big issue. However, the longer you have gaps in your mouth, the more likely it is that there will be negative consequences for your oral health. A missing tooth can lead to difficulty in eating certain foods, self-consciousness over appearance, especially with a missing front tooth, increased risk of damage to surrounding teeth, speech problems, high chances of adjacent teeth becoming crooked, greater likelihood of gum disease and cavities and in severe cases deterioration of jawbone, which can make the face sag over time (even worse when several are missing) So even if you don't notice any immediate missing teeth problems, it's worth considering your options for replacing a missing tooth to protect your mouth from damage later on.
