As kids, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a dedicated Aetna dentist in Dry Creek, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to an awesome dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Dry Creek area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

There is no substitute for a full smile, but as we get older, most of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to an older appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. 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 replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs in Dry Creek, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Dry Creek dentist who can offer prosthetic dentistry. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also accepts Aetna. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network membership plan to reduce the cost of your procedure.


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

Major problems arise when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. Even speaking 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 make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a great Dry Creek oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Aetna and performs ridge augmentation. 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 rebuild jawbone structure 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 like bovine bone could be employed as well. Some opt for synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible 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, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Dry Creek, AK who performs jawbone grafting, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to several problems for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can talk. But the most serious complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium and phosphate to the areas without tooth roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the structure 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 Dry Creek, AK who can make smiles ready for implants.


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


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Dry Creek, AK dental professional who can address tooth loss and takes Aetna. 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 optimal oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With a monthly fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile can happen!

Have you lost most of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean poor oral health, from trouble eating a variety of foods, to difficulties talking. Your jaw loses bone mass following tooth loss, which could lead to further tooth loss. In some cases, a prematurely aged appearance could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your facial structures. But what if your jaw is too weak for traditional implant dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Dry Creek dental professional who provides unique implant dentures.


Most implant dentures need between six and eight implants per jaw. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw has lost mass and density this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo jawbone grafting or sinus lifts beforehand! These can also often be placed with a denture connected to them on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Aetna dentists in Dry Creek who can restore your new smile. You can even schedule a dental visit.


If you questions about the cost, then consider getting our Direct Dental Plan. Our membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on your tooth replacement costs. This helps our Dry Creek patients find affordable dental care, and smile with confidence once again.

Do you have A Loose Tooth? Or, have you developed several gaps in your smile? If so, this could mean more than just embarrassing gaps in your smile. 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 structures! To safeguard the health, function, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dentist in Dry Creek, and we can help you find dentists that accept Aetna!


What happens when gaps appear in your smile? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like jaw joint strain and chronic teeth grinding. You could have difficulty enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become challenging as well. But the most severe complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Dry Creek dentists could discuss custom-made bridges and dentures, and select treatment options that could be covered with Aetna.


Dental bridges could address a single gap in the smile. Dentures could provide solutions for more severe cases. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Dry Creek dentists that perform implants. Do not let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a dentist or prosthodontist!

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.
