What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced Healthplex dentist in Las Animas, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Las Animas‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
