As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a new 1199 dentist in Old Harbor, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, providing lifelike results. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be custom-made. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be stablized with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Old Harbor area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!


P. S. Please congratulate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.

There is no substitute for an attractive smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with missing teeth. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are locked into these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but several decades with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs near Old Harbor, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Old Harbor dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your tooth loss, but also accepts 1199. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to reduce the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will carefully examine your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer replacement teeth that look and function like natural teeth!

Major problems arise when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even talking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of structure in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged appearance. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you find a great Old Harbor dentist who is in-network with 1199 and provides ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make dental care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could use a number of different options. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles may be recommended too. Some opt for synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jaw.


Once the area heals, the dental implants could be placed. The body will accept them as natural roots. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Old Harbor, AK who offers ridge augmentation, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to several problems for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the break down of structure in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address lost teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Old Harbor, AK who can make smiles ready for implants.


As discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of adding new tissue, your Old Harbor dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate new bone structure. The new structure can support one or more implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to preserve the area. Your new teeth can then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened maxillary jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Old Harbor, AK dentist who can offer a sinus lift and takes 1199. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a full smile again. If you don’t have dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and a complete smile. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile can happen!

To safeguard the function, health, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dental professional near Old Harbor, and we can help you find dentists that accept 1199!


What happens when you lose your teeth? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your TMJ and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMJ disorder or bruxism. You could have difficulty eating your favorite foods, and speaking clearly could be difficult as well. But the most severe complication is the the weakening of the jaw. This means that you could suffer further tooth loss. In addition, facial structure changes could make you appear older! But help is available, as Old Harbor dentists could discuss dental prosthetics that fit your smile, and select treatment options that could be covered with 1199.


Fixed partial dentures could replace one to three missing teeth in a row. Dentures could treat more severe cases with full and partial options.

It is important for your little ones to visit a pediatric dentist twice a year for checkups and cleanings. By teaching kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist in Old Harbor who accepts 1199, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with dental sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80%. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel layer. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Old Harbor.

It was so easy to find a doctor and make an appointment. I didn't have to take hours to call different offices and find out who takes my insurance and who doesn't.

I'm a freelancer, so I can't buy insurance easily, so I always ended up paying a lot for doctors' visits. I signed up for a Doctors Network dental plan, and my dental cleanings cost only $25 now. If you don't have dental insurance I highly recommend it.
