What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent in-network dentist in Overlook, AL who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Overlook area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
