A common reason to look for a dentist is to address a toothache. While temporary aches could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus concerns, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For example, a lasting 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. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you probably need a dental restoration. Doctors Network can help connect you to a dentist in the South Lakes, AK area who takes Aetna!


When the dental professional examines your teeth, advanced technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. then, the right treatment is chosen. For kids and adult patients alike, a dental filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental cap or crown could also be used to treat advanced decay. When possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance. If you have an aching tooth, use our search module to connect with South Lakes dentists and request an appointment.

Have you ever noticed popping or crackling sound in the jaw? Do you have persistent migraines? If so, this could be related to two common jaw joint issues. Around twenty-five million people in the United States suffer from TMD and teeth grinding. Without treatment, these could not only lead to painful symptoms, but actually wear down outer tooth structure! Fortunately, your friends at Doctors Network can find the right dental office in South Lakes, AK who accepts Aetna.


While very different from one another, we often find these are related. TMJ disorder develops when the the temporomandibular joints become strained. This could cause problems with jaw function. Common symptoms include pain in the jaw, head, and neck. Bruxism means you clench or grind your teeth in your sleep. The pressure of clenching could cause jaw pain and headaches. Teeth grinding could also weaken and damage the tooth structure. This damage could lead to decay, infection, and more. Both disorders could be caused by issues that strain the jaw joints, and untreated TMJ disorder could mean eventual teeth grinding, and vice-versa. When you have chronic pain in your head and neck, you should find help. We can even connect you with a dental professional in South Lakes who accepts Aetna.


Treatment options often vary; for some, relief is possible following recontouring, which improves bite balance. For others, treating malocclusion with orthodontic treatment could ease strain and stop symptoms. The most common option most dentists offer is an oral splint, which fits like a night-guard. If you need to find treatment from a South Lakes dentist. then contact our team!

Do you have a severely decayed tooth that requires attention? If so, the placement of a dental crown could prevent further complications. The restoration is custom-made for your smile and can provide beauty, function, and health to your smile. Our team can help connect you to a South Lakes, AK dental professional who can restore your smile, and also who will accept Aetna. Don’t risk an abscessed tooth!


One of the first signs of trouble could be an aching tooth. This could be due to the presence of tooth decay. As tooth sensitivity worsens, you could risk the spread of infection or even tooth loss. A trauma that breaks a tooth could also lead to complications like tooth decay or infection with time. In such cases, restorative treatment could stop discomfort. If the tooth defect is too severe for a dental filling, then you may need to receive a dental crown.


The dental crown is a durable restoration. Once placed, this will cover the entire outer tooth structure. They could be made from strong materials like gold. However, lots of dentists in the South Lakes, AK area offer more aesthetic options crafted from ceramic. The total placement process takes two individual appointments. The restoration, whether we use a metal or more aesthetic options, will be created specifically for your tooth. The custom nature of this dental prosthetic helps ensure a balanced bite, protecting your teeth from the onset of bruxism. If you have teeth that need treatment then contact Doctors Network. We can help you find the dental offices that meet your needs and accept Aetna.

It is paramount for kids to visit a dental professional twice a year for exams and cleanings. By teaching your children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a kids’ dentist in South Lakes who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with dental sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their permanent teeth and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80 percent. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps bolster 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 little one’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in South Lakes.

Many individuals would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you stroll down the aisles of any grocery store, 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 tooth bleaching can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in South Lakes, AK that works with Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your South Lakes dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. 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 an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill up with a safe bleaching solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to schedule a consultation with a South Lakes dentist that takes Aetna, we can help you find the best ones.

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.
