What To Do About Missing Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly in-network dentist in Big Bend, NM who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with multiple dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Big Bend‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have gone by since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
