What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a dedicated private dentist in Somerset, ID who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.
First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Somerset area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
