What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated in-network dentist in Hokes Bluff, AL 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 location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be secured with multiple dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Hokes Bluff area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
