What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a dedicated MetroPlus Health Plan MetroPlus dentist in Brook Forest, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe 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 or CD could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Brook Forest area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
