As children, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties eating. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent Aetna dentist in Healy Lake, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will connect you to an awesome dentist in your area. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Healy Lake‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please congratulate our dental professionals in Nashville, TN with us this week.

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we age, many of us struggle with the loss of natural 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 implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts inserted into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures 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 address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs near you in Healy Lake, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Healy Lake dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also works with Aetna. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network membership plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying oral health concerns may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer replacement teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating your favorite foods. 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 patients to look older. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a good Healy Lake oral surgeon who is in-network with Aetna and provides this care. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles could be employed as well. Others recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jaw.


Once the area heals, biocompatible dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Healy Lake, AK who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact how easily you eat your favorite foods, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most severe complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an older appearance and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address lost teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Healy Lake, AK who can strengthen your smile.


As discussed in previous posts, a bone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of adding new tissue, your Healy Lake dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new bone structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. Your new teeth then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Healy Lake, AK dentist who can offer a sinus lift and takes Aetna. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and a complete smile. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is in your future!

Have you lost the majority of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean major problems for your smile, from trouble masticating a variety of foods, to difficulties speaking clearly. Your jaw loses density and mass following tooth loss, which could lead to the loss of additional teeth. In some cases, an older appearance could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your youthful features. But what if your jaw is too weak for multiple dental implants? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Healy Lake dentist who specializes in performing All-On-4s.


Traditional dental implant dentures need between six and eight implants per jaw. But with All-on-4, just four implants are required. Even if your jaw is too weak for a traditional system this could still support a full set of dentures. No need to undergo ridge augmentation beforehand! These can also often be placed with the denture attached on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Aetna dentists in Healy Lake who can provide you with a new smile. You can even schedule a dental visit.


If you have concerns regarding the cost of dental implants, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on the cost of cosmetic dentistry. This helps our Healy Lake patients find affordable dental care, and obtain healthier smiles.

Do you have A Loose Tooth? Or, have you suffered having multiple missing teeth in your smile? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, you may suffer major oral function and health complications. In fact, you could even lose many youthful features! To replace your loose teeth, you need help from a good dental professional in Healy Lake, and we can connect you to dental professionals that accept Aetna!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, causing dental misalignment. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like jaw joint strain and chronic teeth grinding. You could have difficulty enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become difficult as well. But the most severe complication is the break down of the jawbone structure. This means that you could suffer further tooth loss. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Healy Lake dental professionals could discuss custom-made bridges and dentures, and select treatment options that could be covered with Aetna.


Dental bridges could address a single gap in the smile. All on 4 dental implants could treat more severe cases with full and partial options. For the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Healy Lake dentists that perform tooth implant. Do not let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a cosmetic dentist!

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.
