What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a new Aetna dentist in Stone Park, IL who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to an awesome dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Stone Park area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
