What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced Aetna dentist in Roxborough Park, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Roxborough Park‘s proximity and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
