What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a professional and friendly in-network dentist in Firestone, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Firestone area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
