What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. 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 an excellent private dentist in Grand Junction, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an awesome dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be stablized with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Grand Junction area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
