What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a dedicated private dentist in Kendall-Whittier, OK who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Kendall-Whittier area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
