What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an excellent Guardian dentist in Teller, AK who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Teller‘s neighborhoods and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
