What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. The advanced stage of 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 new United Healthcare dentist in Los Alamos, CA 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 skilled dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Los Alamos‘s neighborhoods and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
