What To Do After Losing A Tooth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated private dentist in Grant Park, OR who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe 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 rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Grant Park‘s proximity and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.
