One of the most common reasons to seek dental care is to address pain in one or more teeth. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for many different reasons, including sinus congestion, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For instance, a persistent toothache could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you probably need a tooth-filling. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Port Alexander, AK area near you who takes Aetna!


When the dentist examines your smile, digital x-rays are used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. then, the appropriate treatment option is chosen. For children and adult patients alike, a tooth-filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to address advanced decay. If possible, the dentist will take steps to use more lifelike options, so they ensure an attractive smile. If you have an aching tooth, use our search page to connect with Port Alexander dentists who take walk-ins and book an appointment online.

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Kids need routine dental exams as well, and they need to be monitored by a dental professional for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the wisdom teeth. If you need to find a pediatric dentist in Port Alexander, AK with experience treating smiles of all ages, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin when all baby teeth come in, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Port Alexander pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then intervention might be needed. In addition, kids can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth decay. Sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, sealants can protect the teeth as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Aetna family dentists in Port Alexander who can treat your entire family, let us know. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care kids not only enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also learn the value of caring for their smiles. Good oral health habits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the best dentist for you!

We have reached the time of the year when kids and adults alike will be getting active. While we hope everyone has a great time, we know that they could sustain dental damage. Sometimes, especially with full contact sports, teeth could be damaged, and when damage occurs, care is needed. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of aching teeth. Doctors Network can help you find a 24-hour emergency care center in Port Alexander, AK who can examine the situation.


The outside of each tooth is coated in enamel. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the risk of dental infection. But when a tooth is chipped, this could alter the appearance of your smile. You need treatment even if the damage appears minor. Likewise, you should let us know if you need a Port Alexander dentist who accepts Aetna for more minor complaints. Sudden toothaches and objects caught between the teeth could compromise your smile. Don’t forget that loose teeth could lead to serious problems as well. You also need care if a crown or tooth filling is compromised!


After you contact Doctors Network and begin the search for your Port Alexander, AK dentist, you should take action by taking over-the-counter medications to ease discomfort. A piece of gauze can control any bleeding. A cold compress can ease facial swelling too. If a tooth is damaged or knocked loose, recover the tooth or any pieces and bring them in a sealed container. They can be placed in a glass of cold milk or salt water.

When winter ends, people start going out more and enjoying the beautiful weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to improve imperfections. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding or gaps between the teeth can be corrected with braces. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of bright, healthy teeth. We want to help you find great Port Alexander cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have Aetna and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve a perfect smile.


The first step toward a new smile is a cosmetic consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Port Alexander, AK. The doctor will carefully identify the factors behind your cosmetic issues. Using digital x-rays for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause of your cosmetic concerns to find a tailored treatment for your smile. For stains, professional teeth whitening could correct discolored teeth. Dental bonding and contouring can address dental damage in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and manage gum disease. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with malocclusion, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you don’t have a cosmetic dentist in the Port Alexander, AK area, we can connect you with one! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Aetna. We want to help you obtain a smile that looks amazing!

According to the research by the Centers for Disease Control, over half of adults older than the age of thirty suffer from gingival disease. Without treatment, this condition could lead to painful symptoms, including red and bleeding gums. The advanced stage, known as periodontitis, could also cause tooth loss. This is why care from a Port Alexander dentist is necessary when you begin to notice sore and bleeding gums. We can help by connecting you to one that accepts Aetna. After all, your smile is important!


How does the poor gum health come about? The disease could occur due to poor oral hygiene habits. Others could develop it due to severe plaque and tartar buildup, or due to certain medications, inflammatory illness, tobacco use, or even gum disease in other family members. As we touched on above, tell-tell signs include sore, red, and bleeding gums. By seeing a dentist in Port Alexander, AK you can receive periodontal treatments like deep cleaning to bring relief and improve your oral health. These treatments could be accepted by insurance plans.


If you notice these signs, or if you simply have not been to a dentist in the last six months, you should schedule a visit. At Doctors Network, we can find the right dentists in Port Alexander who accept Aetna. Good oral health is always an option, and we can help facilitate this process!

It is important for children to visit the dentist every six months for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your children preventative measures to protect 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 Port Alexander who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups 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 molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80 percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring 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 child’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Port Alexander.

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.
