What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled private dentist in Columbine, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be stablized with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your alveolar bone and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Columbine area and need a solution for tooth loss, 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 many years have gone by since that happened!
