What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a skilled DentaQuest dentist in Joes, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Joes area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
