What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties eating. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled Delta Dental dentist in Allenspark, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a skilled 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 multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your alveolar bone and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Allenspark area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
