What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties eating. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a new in-network dentist in Longwood, NY who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several gaps, 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 multiple dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Longwood area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!
