What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced in-network dentist in Ridgway, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Ridgway‘s proximity and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. 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 years have gone by since that happened!
