What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis 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 are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced United Healthcare dentist in El Macero, CA who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate 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 missing teeth in a row. For multiple 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 multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the El Macero area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
