As children, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a new Guardian dentist in Empire, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Empire area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!


P. S. Please congratulate our dental professionals in Nashville, TN with us this week.

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial dentures are locked into these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs near Empire, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Empire dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also works with Guardian. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying issues like gum disease may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating your favorite foods. Even speaking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you find a local Empire dentist who is in-network with Guardian and provides ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make dental care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your gums. Your dentist could use a number of different options. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials like bovine bone could also be used. Others recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Empire, CO who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact how easily you eat your favorite foods, or how clearly you can talk. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without tooth roots, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address lost teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Empire, CO who can make smiles ready for implants.


As discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of a grafting procedure, your Empire dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate new support structure. The new structure can support dental implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Empire, CO dental professional who can address tooth loss and takes Guardian. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and a complete smile. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is in your future!

Have you lost the majority of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean major problems for your smile, from trouble eating a variety of foods, to difficulties with clear speech. Your jaw loses mass and density following tooth loss, which could lead to further tooth loss. In some cases, a breakdown in the facial structures could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your facial structures. But what if your jaw is too weak for a set of implant-secured dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Empire dentist who specializes in All-On-4 procedure.


Traditional fixed dentures need between 6 and 8 implants per arch. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw has lost mass and density this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo bone ridge preservation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a denture connected to them on the same visit. In fact, that’s why this is often referred to as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Guardian dentists in Empire who can provide you with a new smile. You can even schedule a dental visit.


If you questions about the cost, then consider getting our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on the cost of cosmetic dentistry. This helps our Empire patients find affordable dental care, and obtain healthier smiles.

It was so easy to find a doctor and make an appointment. I didn't have to take hours to call different offices and find out who takes my insurance and who doesn't.

I'm a freelancer, so I can't buy insurance easily, so I always ended up paying a lot for doctors' visits. I signed up for a Doctors Network dental plan, and my dental cleanings cost only $25 now. If you don't have dental insurance I highly recommend it.
