What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled Delta Dental dentist in Happy Camp, CA who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. 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 several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Happy Camp‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
