What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Bonanza, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Bonanza‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
