What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a permanent Healthplex dentist in Johnstown, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Johnstown area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
