What To Do About Missing Teeth
As children, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a permanent in-network dentist in Union Street, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.
First, we will connect you to an experienced dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.
If you live in the Union Street area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. 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!
