What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a new United Healthcare dentist in Blue River, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will help connect you to a dedicated dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Blue River‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
