What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Triana, AL who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Triana area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
