What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus dentist in Chignik, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, 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 secured with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Chignik‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
