What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced Cigna dentist in Swink, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Swink‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
