What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an amazing private dentist in Ophir, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several 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 prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Ophir area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
