What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced private dentist in Carlton, AL who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a dedicated dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Carlton area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
