What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly in-network dentist in Susan Moore, AL who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Susan Moore‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.
