How to accept to missing teeth
 
You could have bridge work done to fill the gaps if you want to.

Personally I've lived with missing teeth for many years. I lost molars on the bottom, and had bridges put in place. But then 11 years later they started to fail (due to my neglect) and I had even more gaps. Where the initial gap was, then due to the nature of a bridge, I lost the surrounding teeth as well. The "anchoring" teeth.

It depends how well you look after your teeth, and indeed, how you look after your repairs.

But you have options.
