What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. 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 are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a new in-network dentist in Powell, AL who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to an amazing dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Powell‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.
