Oral health declines 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 break down of density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged 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 help you book an online appointment with a good Saxman dentist who is in-network with Aetna and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your gums. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles could be employed as well. Some opt for synthetic materials. During 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 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 in Saxman, AK who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most severe complication is the break down of structure 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 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 Saxman, AK who can shore up your jaw.


As 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 a grafting procedure, your Saxman dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new tissues. 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 can then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Saxman, AK oral surgeon who can provide these services 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 good oral health. 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 is in your future!

It is essential for your little ones to visit a pediatric dentist every six months for checkups 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 life. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist in Saxman who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering biannual dental checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids 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 shield between their adult molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80 percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to dental caries. 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 pediatric dentists in Saxman.

Many folks would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see numerous 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 give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Saxman, AK that works with Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Saxman 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 come in, your dentist will apply a bleaching gel to your front teeth that is then activated with a specialized light that removes discoloration.

If you would prefer to go with whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe whitening solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for approximately two weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to book an appointment with a Saxman dentist that accepts Aetna, we can help you find a fantastic one.

If it has been a long time since you last went to a dentist, you probably should schedule a consultation soon. When you go in for bi-annual dental checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your mouth to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent infections from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more expensive procedures in the future. If you need to schedule an online appointment with a dentist in Saxman, AK that takes Aetna we can help you find a great match.

When you go in for an exam, your dentist will begin with a professional cleaning. This will remove built-up that is tough to remove at home — even with terrific brushing and flossing habits. The dental prophylaxis will leave your mouth feeling rejuvenated.

Once your cleaning is over, your Saxman dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your teeth to identify any potential issues. If they find anything amiss, they can provide treatment options. The Saxman practice we set you up with will offer a myriad of services to address a variety of dental conditions. If you attend regularly scheduled checkups they can keep track of the health of your smile. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation with a 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.
