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 is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly United Healthcare dentist in Shelter Cove, 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 an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. 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 placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Shelter Cove‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
