What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties eating. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced Healthplex dentist in Jansen, CO 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. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Jansen area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
