dental-implants-or-bridge

As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems talking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a professional and friendly Aetna dentist in Shishmaref, AK who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will connect you to a dedicated dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Shishmaref‘s proximity and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!


P. S. Please celebrate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

sleep-apnea-treatment

When you have a poor sleeping pattern, you may not realize it, but a dentist near you could help. But in fact, Aetna dentists can provide a non-invasive solution to treat sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) means that as you sleep, the soft tissues in the throat and the tissues around the throat collapse and cause you to stop breathing. Patients with OSA literally stop breathing briefly until the brain alerts the body to resume breathing. Even if you assume you slept well, you could experience daytime drowsiness! But when should you contact Doctors Network and find Shishmaref, AK dentists who could offer treatment with oral appliance therapy?


Symptoms of OSA include chronic snoring. Daytime headaches, drowsiness, and even trouble with interpersonal relationships could occur too. Without treatment, OSA could even impact your immune system and increase the risk of heart disease. When you experience similar signs, consider seeing a dental professional. Sometimes, oral appliance therapy can be helpful to keep airways free of obstruction, so you can finally sleep comfortably.


This week we are celebrating our dentists in Manhattan, NY.

tooth-bonding

If you have a fractured tooth or one that is yellow stained, then you need a cosmetic treatment. With contouring and tooth-color bonding in Shishmaref, AK, these and other cosmetic imperfections can be can be addressed with lifelike results. At Doctors Network, we can help connect you with a restorative dentist in Shishmaref, AK who accepts Aetna and provides the comprehensive treatments you need. You may not believe just how much these two treatments can correct in a single appointment.


Dental filling repairs cosmetic concerns using a metal-free material. The bonding material, a mix of glass-like and acrylic particles, is shaded and placed onto the prepared area. Shishmaref dentists also use the same material to fill tooth cavities. With dental contouring, the dentist actually buffs and sands the outer tooth surfaces to correct issues with a tooth’s balance and shape.


Today we are celebrating our Brooklyn dental professionals. Between these two procedures, these dentists will be able to reshape malformed teeth, repair dental damage, mask stains on teeth, and close gaps between the teeth.

Periodontal disease is a common oral health issue. In fact, studies from the Centers for Disease Control reveal that fifty percent of adults over 30 have gum disease. Without treatment, gum disease could cause uncomfortable symptoms. Known as periodontitis, this is actually the most common cause of missing teeth. All that to say, when you develop discomfort in the gums, you should seek help as soon as you can. Inflamed and receding gums, especially with bleeding, are common indicators that you need to see a Shishmaref family dentist.


Doctors Network can help connect you with reconstructive dentists in Shishmaref AK that accept Aetna and can offer a diagnosis after a dental examination. If there is a presence of periodontal concerns, then a treatment plan can be created. For milder cases, a deep cleaning followed by traditional cleanings every three to four months could prevent symptoms. For the later stages of the disease, there are options like laser dentistry, pocket reduction, gum grafts, and more to restore your smile!

As children, many of us clench our teeth for short periods of time. The issue tends to be temporary. But for some, bruxism could mean chronic teeth grinding into and throughout adulthood, and the pressure from grinding and clenching your teeth could injure your teeth. Chipped and cracked teeth could change your appearance. You’re also more likely to develop tooth decay or even dental infection, which is why if you have bruxism, you should consider using Doctors Network’s search tool to find a dentist in Shishmaref.


Your significant other may let you know that you have bruxism when you sleep. Otherwise, symptoms could include toothaches and tooth sensitivity. 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 these symptoms, talk to us about finding the right dentist in your area who accepts Aetna.

You can’t put a price on a full smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with missing teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as bridges or removable dentures, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care.


Are you ready to tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs in Shishmaref, you are not alone, but firstly, you need to find a Shishmaref dentist who can offer prosthetic dentistry. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your tooth loss, but also works with Aetna. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to reduce the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer quality prosthetics that look and function like natural dentition!

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.
