What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly Guardian dentist in Mountain Village, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Mountain Village area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. 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 many years have gone by since that happened!
