What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a new DentaQuest dentist in New Haven, CT who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the New Haven‘s proximity and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
