What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly private dentist in Denwood Estates, OK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with multiple dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.
If you live in the Denwood Estates area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
