What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontitis could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled United Healthcare dentist in Aguilar, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to an amazing dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental 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 Aguilar area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
