What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly in-network dentist in Oxford, AL who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Oxford‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get 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!
P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.
