17 Jan Missing Teeth? Dentures: Not Just For Seniors
Play sports? Or are you just active? Chances are you might have played so hard you ended up chipping or knocking a tooth out entirely. What do you do when this happens? It’s not like you can cruise to work with a gaping hole in your smile. A fast and cost effective treatment is dentures.
Dentures aren’t just for your grandparents anymore. There are partial plates to help fix that one mishap you may have created on your Sunday hockey league. Gaps left by missing teeth can cause problems with eating and speech, and teeth either side of the gap may grow into the space at an angle. Sometimes, all the teeth need to be removed and replaced.
You may therefore need either:
- complete dentures (a full set), which replace all your upper or lower teeth, or
- partial dentures, which replace just one or a few missing teeth
Dentures can help prevent the above problems and, if complete dentures are needed, can improve the appearance of your smile, fill out your face and give you confidence. And who doesn’t like confidence?
