What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent Cigna dentist in Johnstonville, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can inspect 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 several gaps, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Johnstonville area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
