What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new in-network dentist in Memphis, AL who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to an experienced dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Memphis area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
