What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties eating. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your youthful features. You need an experienced Healthplex dentist in Queens, NY who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild 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 or CD could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be stablized with tooth 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 Queens area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
