It will.
A row of teeth act in unison and support each other under load.
If one is missing, the other two will bend into the empty space and their roots will now be compromised.
Now there is two more ready to crack and be pulled.
I had a cap pop off while on vacation away from home and dentist.
In only a few days the other teeth flexed inwards and made the re-install very tight.
They had to file the sides of the cap to get it back in.
Git'er done son. A jaw abscess is something you don't want to deal with.
$4-6k for an implant is what I've heard.
