What To Do About Missing Teeth
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 this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties eating. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled in-network dentist in Golf Acres, CT who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to an amazing dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Golf Acres area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
