When winter ends, people start going out more and enjoying the beautiful weather, and of course, we want our smiles to shine 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 and gaps can be fixed with Invisalign®. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of bright, healthy teeth. We want to help connect you to Gustavus cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have Aetna and can offer the range of treatment needed to transform your teeth.


The first step toward a new smile is a consultation with your dentist in Gustavus, AK. The doctor will carefully identify the factors behind your cosmetic issues. Using digital technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause and extent of your cosmetic concerns to find a personalized treatment plan. 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 correct gummy smiles. Porcelain veneers are cosmetic restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with major misalignment, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you do not have a dentist in the Gustavus, AK area, we can help! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Aetna. We want to help you obtain a smile that makes you feel great!

Did you ever notice a popping sensation in your jaw? Do you have persistent migraines? If so, this could be related to widespread jaw joint disorders. Around 25 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 Gustavus, AK who accepts Aetna.


While very different from one another, these two disorders are often related. TMJ disorder develops when the jaw joints undergo excessive strain. 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 could cause headaches and jaw pain. Teeth grinding could also damage teeth. This damage could lead to decay, infection, and more. Both disorders could be caused by issues that cause bite imbalance, and untreated TMJ disorder could mean eventual teeth grinding, and vice-versa. When you have persistent pain in your head and neck, you should find help. We can even connect you with a dentist in Gustavus who accepts Aetna.


Treatment options often vary; for some, relief is possible following dental bonding, which improves bite balance. For others, treating malocclusion with Invisalign could ease strain and stop symptoms. The most common option most dentists offer is an oral appliance, which fits like a mouthguard. If you need to find treatment from a Gustavus dentist. then contact our team!

It is paramount for children to visit a dental professional bi-yearly for dental visits 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 pediatric dentist in Gustavus who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with dental sealants. These are small pieces of BPA-free acrylic that dentists paint onto 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 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 child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to dental caries. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Gustavus.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you stroll down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see myriad 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 Gustavus, AK that accepts Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Gustavus dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment. With the in-office option, you will typically be out within about an hour, and you will have noticeably whiter teeth. For this option, your dentist will apply a gel solution to your teeth that they will then activate with a special light, to remove stains.

If you would prefer to choose an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe bleaching or peroxide solution. You will put these on for a couple of hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to schedule a visit online with a Gustavus dentist that takes Aetna, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been at least half a year since you last saw a dentist, you probably should schedule a consultation as soon as possible. When you go in for bi-annual checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your mouth to make sure nothing is awry. This helps prevent carious lesions from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures down the road. If you need to schedule an online appointment with a dentist in Gustavus, AK that takes Aetna we can help you find a great match.

When you visit your dentist for a checkup, they will start with a thorough cleaning. This will remove tartar that is difficult to remove at home — even with terrific brushing and flossing habits. The dental prophylaxis will leave your mouth feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is done, your Gustavus dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your oral cavity to identify any potential problems. If they find anything amiss, they can suggest the proper treatment. The Gustavus practice we set you up with will offer a myriad of services to address a variety of dental needs. When you visit the dentist consistently they can keep track of the health of your smile. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a visit with a dentist that works with 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.
