What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated Delta Dental dentist in Fairmead, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Fairmead area and have lost your natural teeth, 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 years have gone by since that happened!
