What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Steamboat Springs, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess 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, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Steamboat Springs area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
