What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a permanent Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Bethel, 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 dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Bethel area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
