What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a permanent in-network dentist in Fort Tilden, NY who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Fort Tilden‘s proximity and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
