Missing Tooth Facial Sagging - I'm wondering if this sagging skin will regain tone/firmness once the tooth is replaced?

Hello I am pleased to hear that you are having implant treatment to replace the lost premolar.It is unusual to have any significant loss of cheek support after loosing a comparatively small tooth such as a premolar. When molars are lost, the cheek can collapse inwards due to loss of supportHowever, the implant crown should restore support.If there is still sagging, you should consider some aesthetic treatment to fill and lift the cheek. This could involve dermal fillers, skin tightening using a device such as HIFU (high-intensity ultrasound) or even a Silhouette Soft thread lift.It is difficult to advise without seeing photographs.So I would suggest reviewing how its looks once the implant treatment is complete and, if you are not happy with the appearance of sagging, consider an appointment with an experienced aesthetic doctor to advise you on any possible treatment.With kind regardsDr Ian Hallam MBE

in order to build up the volume and cheek-lip support you need to have a bone graft at the same time of the dental implant in order to have a natural emergence and support.
