What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Fleetwood, TN 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 friendly dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Fleetwood area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
