What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Colona, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist near you. 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 placed, providing lifelike results. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be secured with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Colona area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
