What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly DentaQuest dentist in Air Force Academy, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Air Force Academy area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
