What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As children, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an awesome in-network dentist in Gloucester Square, TN who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Gloucester Square area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
