What Is Hypodontia?

Hypodontia is a dental condition where one or more permanent teeth fail to develop. It is different from losing teeth due to injury or decay—these teeth are naturally missing from birth. While it can affect any teeth, it is most common in:
  • Upper lateral incisors
  • Second premolars
  • Lower central incisors (less common)
Hypodontia can impact your appearance, bite alignment, and overall oral function if left untreated.

Why Treat Hypodontia?

Leaving gaps in your smile can lead to several problems over time:

  • Shifting teeth – Neighboring teeth can move into empty spaces.

  • Bite problems – Misalignment can cause jaw pain and difficulty chewing.

  • Bone loss – Missing teeth can lead to jawbone resorption over time.

  • Lower self-confidence – Visible gaps can affect your smile and confidence.

Early treatment helps preserve your oral health and restores natural function.


How Dentures Can Help

For patients with hypodontia, partial dentures can be an effective and affordable solution. They are designed to:

  • Replace missing teeth and restore your smile

  • Support your bite and improve chewing ability

  • Prevent remaining teeth from shifting

  • Provide a natural-looking appearance

At Cohen Cosmetic & Emergency Denture Clinic, we offer several denture options, including:

  • Flexible partial dentures – Lightweight and virtually invisible in the mouth

  • Acrylic partial dentures – Affordable and easy to adjust

  • Cast metal dentures – Durable with a precise fit

Living with Hypodontia

Even after receiving dentures, maintaining good oral hygiene and regular checkups is essential:

  • Clean your dentures daily with gentle, non-abrasive products

  • Handle dentures carefully to avoid damage

  • Visit your denturist regularly for adjustments and oral health checks

  • Consider periodic relines to ensure comfort as your mouth changes
