What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties eating. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Nulato, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, 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 stablized with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Nulato‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
