As children, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced Aetna dentist in Saxman, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Saxman‘s neighborhoods and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

If you have a toothache, or a tooth that is damaged, you need treatment. Otherwise, the tooth could develop cavities and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only a lost tooth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the issue is beyond the stage to be treated with a tooth filling or a root canal. Instead, the tooth could require immediate extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Aetna dentist or oral surgeon in Saxman, AK who can provide a effective tooth extraction as needed.


As we touched on above, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontitis. Extracting a tooth could restore overall balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for orthodontic treatment! In many cases, this could prevent wisdom tooth impaction. Removing wisdom teeth prior to eruption helps preserve the balance and overall esthetics. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for a full prosthetic. Your Saxman general dentist could use the extraction to improve the health, function, and surprisingly, sometimes the appearance of your smile.


Now that you understand why a tooth may require removal, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can find a general dentist in the Saxman, AK area. But if you don’t have dental insurance, you may worry about the cost. Fortunately, we have a financing option! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a small fee each month. For some, this could reduce the cost of care by up to ninety percent!

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom teeth extracted and are eager to tell their experiences to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a professional. If you need these teeth pulled, it is important to have a wide range of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth removal and what you should look for in a dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great dentist near you in Saxman, AK that accepts Aetna.


The third molars or wisdom teeth are in the back of the mouth, and there are two on the top and two on the bottom. They usually appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because they are the last teeth to erupt, their appearance can cause complications with your existing ones. They can erupt at odd directions, only partially come in, or overcrowd your current teeth. When this happens, they are more susceptible to bacteria and infections. If any of these conditions take place, it can be very uncomfortable and can damage your dentition. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth coming in, it is important to see a Saxman oral surgery practice quickly.


If you do need wisdom teeth extraction, your dentist will determine how they will go about the extraction to ensure everything goes without complications. They will determine which of your wisdom teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also decide the appropriate type of sedation and the condition of your existing teeth. Once they ascertain this information, they can plan your treatment more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation, so you will not feel pain. Your dentist will extract your teeth and pay attention to your needs the entire time to make sure you are doing well. Once your wisdom teeth are pulled, you will receive post-surgery care instructions. Fortunately, there are many Saxman dentists that accept Aetna and can adeptly extract your wisdom teeth.

It is crucial for kids to visit the dentist every six months 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 dental office in Saxman who takes Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kid with 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 back molars and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80%. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps strengthen your children’s teeth. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Saxman.

Many individuals would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see countless products that advertise 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 Saxman, AK that takes Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Saxman dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home option. 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 whitening at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe bleaching solution. You will put these on for a few hours each day for approximately 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to book a consultation online with a Saxman dentist that takes Aetna, we can help you find a fantastic 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.
