What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a new in-network dentist in Stratford Chase, VA who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Stratford Chase area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you 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 gone by since that happened!
