What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a skilled Guardian dentist in Evergreen, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be stablized with multiple dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Evergreen area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.
