Oral health declines 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 mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. 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 Savoonga oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Aetna and offers jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your mandible. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles may be recommended too. Others recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


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, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Savoonga, 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 major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can talk. But the most severe complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an older appearance and weakens the structure 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 Savoonga, AK who can shore up your jaw.


As discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of grafting, your Savoonga dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up 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 prevent further breakdowns. 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 Savoonga, AK oral surgeon who can offer a sinus lift and takes Aetna. 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 financing option. 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 crucial for kids to visit the dentist every six months for exams and cleanings. By teaching children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a pediatric dental office in Savoonga who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children with sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a barrier between their back molars and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80%. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps strengthen your children’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 kid’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Savoonga.

Many folks would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any grocery store, you see countless products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Savoonga, AK that accepts Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Savoonga dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home option. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. For this option, your dentist will apply a gel solution to your teeth that they will then activate with a special light, to remove stains.

If you would prefer to get an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe peroxide solution. You will wear these for a few hours each day for approximately two weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to book an appointment online with a Savoonga dentist that accepts 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.
