Edentulous refers to the quality of having no teeth, or few teeth. In humans, tooth loss is usually due to disease, accident, the aging process, or dental decay.Some animals, however, are meant to be edentulous, such as anteaters, sloths, aardvarks, and other members of the Xenartha, or former Edentata, order.eople missing teeth may also have trouble pronouncing English letter sounds such as âfâ or âv,â which require the lips to touch the teeth. Tooth loss can also pose patients with difficulty chewing. Ad. Teeth also perform several roles in maintaining the structural integrity of the face.
This X-ray film displays two lone-standing teeth, #21 and #22, as the remnants of a once full complement of 16 lower teeth. This case of partial edentulism is the result of periodontal disease, as is suggested by the substantial bone loss around the two remaining teeth.Edentulism is the condition of being toothless to at least some degree; in organisms (such as humans) that naturally have dentition, it is the result of tooth loss.hen an individual's mouth is at rest, the teeth in the opposing jaws are nearly touching; there is what is referred to as a freeway space of roughly 2â3 mm. However, this distance is partially maintained as a result of the teeth limiting any further closure past the point of maximum intercuspation.
