What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated Delta Dental dentist in Anderson, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing 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 secured with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jawbones and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Anderson area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
