What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need an awesome DentaQuest dentist in Trabuco Canyon, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Trabuco Canyon area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
