What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly Guardian dentist in Willow, AK 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 an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your alveolar bone and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Willow 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 lost all of your teeth, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
