What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a new Healthplex dentist in Unalakleet, AK who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Unalakleet area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
