What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new Healthplex dentist in Ridgway, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe 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 custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Ridgway area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.
