What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new Aetna dentist in Steamboat Springs, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor 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 rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Steamboat Springs‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
