What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus dentist in Alpine, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Alpine‘s proximity 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 lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
