What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems eating. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent United Healthcare dentist in Sanford, CO who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to an experienced 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, restoring smile function. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Sanford area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
