As children, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a permanent MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus dentist in Las Animas, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Las Animas‘s proximity and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please applaud our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial dentures are locked into these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care.


Are you ready to replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you are wondering how much a dental implant costs near Las Animas, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Las Animas dentist who can offer tooth replacement. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also takes MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying factors may need to be treated before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating your favorite foods. Even clear speech could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of structure in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you book an online appointment with a local Las Animas dentist who is in-network with MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make dental care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your mandible. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials like bovine bone could be employed as well. We could also recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jaw.


Once the area heals, biocompatible dental implants could be placed. The body will see them as natural structures. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Las Animas, CO who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact how easily you eat your favorite foods, or how clearly you can speak. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Las Animas, CO who can shore up your jaw.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper arch? Instead of a grafting procedure, your Las Animas dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new support structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth can then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Las Animas, CO oral surgeon who can provide these services and takes MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a whole smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

Have you lost the majority of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean major problems for your smile, from trouble chewing a variety of foods, to difficulties talking. Your jaw loses mass and density following tooth loss, which could lead to the loss of additional teeth. In some cases, a breakdown in the facial structures could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your youthful features. But what if your jaw is too weak for a set of implant-secured dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Las Animas prosthodontist who offers All-On-4s.


Traditional implant-supported dentures need between 6 and 8 implant fixtures per jaw. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw is too weak for a traditional system this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo bone ridge preservation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a denture connected to them on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best MetroPlus Health Plan dentists in Las Animas who can offer these lifelike prosthetics. You can even book an online dental visit.


If you have a limited budget, then consider signing up for our Direct Dental Plan. Our simple membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on prosthetic dentistry. This helps our Las Animas patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

The pressure on your tempromandibular joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMD or persistent teeth grinding or clenching. You could have difficulty enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become challenging too. But the most severe complication is the the weakening of the jaw. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Las Animas dentists or prosthodontists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with MetroPlus Health Plan.

It was so easy to find a doctor and make an appointment. I didn't have to take hours to call different offices and find out who takes my insurance and who doesn't.

I'm a freelancer, so I can't buy insurance easily, so I always ended up paying a lot for doctors' visits. I signed up for a Doctors Network dental plan, and my dental cleanings cost only $25 now. If you don't have dental insurance I highly recommend it.
