What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new Guardian dentist in Sterling, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be secured with multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Sterling area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
