What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties eating. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in South Louisville, KY who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the South Louisville area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
