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. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a permanent Aetna dentist in Sierra Ridge, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can examine 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 restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Sierra Ridge‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
