What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a new private dentist in Snowmass Village, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to an experienced dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be secured with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jawbones and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Snowmass Village area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental professionals in Nashville, TN with us this week.
