What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent MetLife dentist in Las Animas, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your alveolar bone and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Las Animas area and need a solution for tooth loss, 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!
