Our Virginia Beach, VA dentist’s office is prepared to provide different degrees of restorative dental work. For some patients, all that is needed to fully address their oral health problems is treatment for a cavity. However, others can require more involved care. You can reach out to our practice to discuss replacing teeth that you have lost. The right prosthetic appliance can replace a single missing tooth, or help you address the loss of several teeth. Our support includes treatment with dental implants. Implants are able to provide remarkable support for replacement teeth, as they keep them anchored to your jawbone, and allow you to bite and chew without difficulties.
Problems With Tooth Loss Should Not Be Taken Lightly
Tooth loss creates several concerns that should be addressed. The cosmetic effect of having even one missing tooth can be hard to miss. This problem also makes you vulnerable to problems with your bite, which can lead to more oral health troubles and even issues with TMJ disorder. Over time, having missing teeth can cause you to experience jawbone deterioration, and it can also make you more likely to lose more teeth. Fortunately, these problems can be addressed when you take the time to have your smile fully restored.
What Are My Options For Replacing Missing Teeth?
With the right restorative treatment, your smile can be whole again, and you can have an easier time biting, chewing, and even speaking. With dental implants, you can have a restoration secured to your jawbone by a small metal post. The post is carefully set in place after a careful evaluation. With its support, you can trust a prosthetic to stay secure even when you bite and chew. The stimulation from these actions actually helps your oral health by keeping the bone from deteriorating! You can also have a permanent appliance in the form of a dental bridge. Bridges are held by dental crowns, and do not require oral surgery to be placed.
Enjoying Your Life With Your Restored Smile!
The goal with any restorative treatment is to help a patient feel confident in their appearance and oral health after a problem has occurred. When that problem is tooth loss, patients can sometimes worry that their smile is always going to be compromised. The right treatment can give you a stable restoration that lets you bite, chew, and show off your smile with more confidence! We can help you remain confident over time during routine dental exams, as we can check on the status of your teeth as well as your restoration.
