What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced in-network dentist in Richland Hills, NM who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be stablized with multiple dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Richland Hills area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
