What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly in-network dentist in Gunbarrel, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Gunbarrel area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
