What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced private dentist in Gypsum, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Gypsum‘s proximity and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
