What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. 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 with nutritional intake. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Basalt, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to an awesome dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Basalt area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
