What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Padroni, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with tooth 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 Padroni‘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 complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
