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 break down of density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. 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 help you book an online appointment with a great Elim dentist who is in-network with Aetna and offers this care. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make dental care affordable!


Bone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your mandible. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles may be recommended too. We could also recommend synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will see them as natural structures. 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 Elim, AK who offers ridge augmentation, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your treatment fits in 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 mass and density in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without teeth, 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 your missing teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Elim, AK who can strengthen your smile.


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 upper arch? Instead of adding new tissue, your Elim dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, 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 last for decades to come, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Elim, AK dentist who can provide these services and takes Aetna. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a whole 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 a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

It is paramount for kids to visit a pediatric dentist every six months for exams and cleanings. By teaching your kids how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dental office in Elim who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering biannual dental checkups and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children with 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 back molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay 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 fortify your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most durable substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Elim.

Many individuals would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see countless products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Elim, AK that accepts Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Elim dentist, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office option. With the in-office option, you will typically be out within about an hour, and you will have noticeably whiter teeth. When you visit the office for whitening, your dentist will apply a special bleaching gel that, when activated by a special light, will get rid of stains.

If you would prefer to get whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe peroxide or bleaching solution. You will wear these for one or two hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to schedule a visit online with a Elim dentist that accepts Aetna, we can help you find a great one.

If it has been over six months since you last visited a dentist, you should schedule a consultation soon. When you go in for bi-annual dental checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your teeth to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent dental caries from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures in the future. If you need to schedule an appointment with a dentist in Elim, AK that takes Aetna we can help you find a great match.

To begin your visit, a hygienist will clean your teeth thoroughly. This will remove tartar and plaque that is tough to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The dental cleaning will leave your teeth feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is completed, your Elim dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your teeth to identify any potential problems. If they find anything amiss, they will explain your treatment options. The Elim dentist we set you up with will offer comprehensive services to address a variety of dental needs. If you visit the dentist regularly they can keep track of the health of your mouth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment online with a dentist that takes Aetna, we can help you find a great one.

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.
