What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled DentaQuest dentist in Granada, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Granada area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
