The ruling on removing natural teeth to install artificial teeth
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: What is the ruling on removing natural teeth and installing artificial teeth in their place? Is this permissible in the Shari'ah? It is known that the natural teeth serve their intended purpose, but to a lesser degree?
Answer:
If the natural teeth remain in their original state and benefit, and there is no defect or deficiency in them, they are left as they are and not altered, because this would be changing Allah's creation without a compelling benefit. So the teeth remain if they perform their function, are not disfiguring, and do not harm their owner. However, if there is a defect that requires treatment, they are treated in a way that removes the harm from the tooth owner. Yes.
