What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties eating. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a new Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Rocky Ford, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Rocky Ford‘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 lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
