Asymmetrical Face.
Hi there,
I have a problem with my face. I had a tooth (first molar) plucked out (about 1.5 years ago) from the right upper jaw and after few days I noticed that right side of the face is asymmetrical (right side cheek is concave whereas the left is convex)
I understand that the cause of the problem was plucking out the tooth which maybe had a deep root.
Kindly advice on the above problem since I'm a working professional who interacts a lot with people and this problem holds me back)
Thank you.

If you feel that there is asymmetrical face. This may be as a result of not replacing your tooth artificially ( dentures) One of the major function of the dentures is to replace artificially the lost tooth to its original integrity and shape and maintenance of the facial profile, function and esthetics.
