What To Do When You Lose Natural Teeth
As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled private dentist in Santa Teresa, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Santa Teresa‘s proximity and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!
