What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an amazing Cigna dentist in Portland, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess 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 missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Portland area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get 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!
