What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an excellent Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Scottsdale, AZ who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, providing lifelike results. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Scottsdale area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
