What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new in-network dentist in Talmage, CA who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to an amazing dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Talmage area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
