When any part of the body is put out of use, it tends to wither away. If we take a tooth away the gum will shrink, underneath the bone that used to support the tooth will find itself with no reason to stay and will also shrink away.

There are some factors that speed up the bone loss process. One of these is the use of dentures when you clench; dentures squeeze the blood out of the gum. This reduces the blood supplying the bone and causes accelerated shrinkage. In addition teeth that are associated with infection may result in faster loss of bone. This is why diseased teeth should be removed soon so that bone is not lost.
