sleep-apnea-treatment

When you experience chronic snoring, you may not assume a dentist near you could help. In fact, Aetna dentists can provide a comfortable solution to stop nighttime airway obstruction. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition in which as you sleep, the soft palate and the back of your mouth collapse and cause you to stop breathing. Patients actually stop breathing for a few moments until the brain alerts the body to resume breathing. Even if you assume you slept well, you could feel tired! But when is it time to contact Doctors Network to find Elim, AK dentists who provide treatment options?


Symptoms of OSA could include chronic snoring. Daytime drowsiness, headaches, and trouble with interpersonal relationships could be factors too. Without intervention, OSA could affect your immune system and your cardiovascular health. When you suffer similar signs and symptoms, consider seeing a dental professional. Often, oral appliance therapy can be helpful to keep air passages clear while you sleep, so you can finally sleep comfortably.

When we are kids, many of us develop teeth grinding for short periods of time. The issue tends to pass on its own. But for some, bruxism could mean the issue persists into and throughout adolescence, and the pressure from clenching and grinding your teeth could injure your teeth. Cracks, chips, and worn-down structures could leave your smile vulnerable. You are also more likely to develop tooth decay or even dental infection, which is why if you grind your teeth, you should consider using Doctors Network’s search tool to find a dental practice in Elim.


Your significant other may let you know you grind your teeth in your sleep. Otherwise, symptoms could include jaw pain and headaches. Treatment options vary. Some dentists bring relief by addressing the oral health issues behind your bruxism. They could correct misalignment with clear aligners, or even replace missing teeth with prosthetics. Many offer treatment with custom and comfortable oral splints. So don’t ignore the possible warning signs, talk to us about finding the right dentist in your area who accepts Aetna.

Did you ever notice popping or cracking when you open your mouth? Do you have frequent headaches or jaw pain? If so, this could be related to a common but serious oral health issue. Around twenty-five million people in the United States suffer from chronic bruxism and TMJ dysfunction. Without treatment, these could not just cause jaw pain, but actually damage the teeth too! Fortunately, your friends at Doctors Network can connect you to a dental professional in Elim, AK who accepts Aetna.


While very different from one another, one often increases the risk of the other. TMJ disorder develops when the the temporomandibular joints become strained. This could cause problems when you eat or speak. Common symptoms include pain in the jaw, head, and neck. Bruxism means you suffer from nightly teeth grinding. The pressure could cause jaw pain. Teeth grinding could also weaken and damage the tooth structure. This damage could lead to decayed teeth, infection, and more. Both disorders could be caused by issues that upset bite balance, and untreated TMJ disorder could mean eventual teeth grinding, and vice-versa. When you have frequent discomfort in your head and neck, you should find help. We can even connect you with a dentist in Elim who accepts Aetna.


There are, however, multiple treatment options available; for some, relief is possible following crown placement, which improves bite balance. For others, treating misalignment with aligners or braces could ease strain and stop symptoms. The most common option most dentists offer is an oral appliance, which fits like a night-guard. If you need to find treatment from a Elim dentist. then contact our team!

It is important for your little ones to visit the dentist twice a year for checkups and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a dentist in Elim who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child 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 back molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of cavities by up to 80 percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your children’s enamel. 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 cavities. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Elim.

Many people would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any drug store, you see numerous products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Elim, AK that takes Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth 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 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 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 bleaching solution. You will wear these for a few hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to schedule an appointment with a Elim dentist that takes Aetna, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been at least half a year since you last went to a dentist, you should schedule a checkup soon. When you go in for bi-annual checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your mouth to make sure nothing is awry. This helps prevent caries from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more expensive procedures in the future. If you are looking for a dentist in Elim, AK that accepts 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 tartar and plaque that is tough to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The dental prophylaxis will leave your mouth feeling fresh.

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