What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need an experienced Lincoln Financial Group dentist in Highland, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Highland‘s neighborhoods 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 suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
