What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a permanent in-network dentist in Sherrelwood, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Sherrelwood area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
