What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled in-network dentist in Greenfield, MI who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to an experienced dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Greenfield area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
