What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a new private dentist in Sherrelwood, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be secured 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 losing a tooth.
If you live in the Sherrelwood‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you 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!
