As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of 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 speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated 1199 dentist in Nikiski, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Nikiski‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have gone by since that happened!


P. S. Please celebrate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

Nothing feels better than a full smile, but as we age, many of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts inserted into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you want to know how much dental implants cost in Nikiski, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Nikiski dentist who can offer tooth replacement. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also works with 1199. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying issues like gum disease may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer quality prosthetics that look and function like natural ones!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. 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 patients to look older. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a good Nikiski oral surgeon who is in-network with 1199 and performs this care. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials may be recommended too. We could also recommend synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible bone.


Once the area heals, the dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Nikiski, AK who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your care fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most severe complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an older appearance and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Nikiski, AK who can strengthen your smile.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper arch? Instead of adding new tissue, your Nikiski dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to generate new support structure. The new structure can support one or more implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened maxillary jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Nikiski, AK dentist who can address tooth loss and takes 1199. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a full smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and optimal oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile can happen!

Do you have a missing tooth? Or, have you lost several of them? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, you may develop negative impacts on the health, beauty, and function of your smile. In fact, you could even develop major changes to your facial structure! To safeguard the health, function, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dental practice in Nikiski, and we can connect you to dental professionals that accept 1199!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, causing dental misalignment. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMD or persistent teeth grinding or clenching. You could have difficulty enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become difficult as well. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, facial structure changes could make you appear older! But help is available, as Nikiski dentists or prosthodontists 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. All on 4 dental implants could treat more severe cases with full and partial options. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Nikiski dentists who perform teeth implants. Don’t let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a prosthodontist!

It is important for kids to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your kids how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a dental office in Nikiski who accepts 1199, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children with protective sealants. These are small pieces of BPA-free acrylic that dentists paint onto their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their molars and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of cavities by up to eighty percent. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps bolster your children’s teeth. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Nikiski.

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.
