What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, 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 is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new Cigna dentist in Pine Valley, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an amazing dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor 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 restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be stablized with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Pine Valley‘s neighborhoods and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
