What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a new in-network dentist in Thomas, AL who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to an awesome dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine 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 address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Thomas area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental professionals in Nashville, TN with us this week.
