What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a permanent private dentist in Ophir, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your alveolar bone and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Ophir area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
