What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Sterling, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a dedicated dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Sterling‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. 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 elapsed since that happened!
