What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced in-network dentist in Fordham, NY who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to an amazing dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Fordham area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
