What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a permanent MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus dentist in Ponderosa Park, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Ponderosa Park area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
