What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood 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, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled Medicaid dentist in Clay, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Clay area and need a solution for tooth loss, 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 years have elapsed since that happened!
