What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent private dentist in Crestwood, OR who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Crestwood‘s proximity and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
