Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from routine dental treatment. Adolescents need regular preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a dentist for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, wisdom tooth eruption. If you need to request an online appointment a pediatric dental professional in Elfin Cove, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin as early as age two, and should be scheduled twice a year. These visits enable your Elfin Cove pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as toothaches, or gingivitis, then treatment can be administered. In addition, children can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, these protective sealants can provide protection against tooth cavities for as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Aetna dentists in Elfin Cove who can provide children’s dentistry, let us know. We want to help you find affordable dental care. With routine care children not only can enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also understand the importance of regular care. Good oral health habits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy smiles. All of it starts with that initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the best practice for you and your children!

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is injured, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop a decay and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only a lost tooth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the damage or cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a restoration. Instead, the tooth could require immediate extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you book an online appointment with a Aetna dentist or oral surgeon in Elfin Cove, AK who can provide a effective tooth extraction as needed.


As we touched on above, advanced decay or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontal disease. Removing a tooth could return 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 appearance of your smile. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for dentures. Your Elfin Cove general dentist could use the procedure to improve the function, health, and even the beauty of your smile.


Now that you understand when a tooth may require removal, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can locate a dentist in the Elfin Cove, AK area. But if you don’t have coverage, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a payment plan! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a low monthly cost. For some, this could cut the cost of care by up to ninety percent!

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom tooth pulled and are eager to describe their experiences to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a dentist or an oral surgeon. If you need these teeth pulled, it is best 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 expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great dentist near you in Elfin Cove, AK that accepts Aetna.


The third molars are located in the back of your mouth, and there is one on each quadrant. They most commonly appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth come in later than the rest of your teeth, their arrival can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual angles, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your current teeth. When this happens, they are probably going to be affected by abscess and infections. If any of these situations happen, it can be very painful and can affect your dentition. If you think you might have complications with wisdom teeth coming in, it is important to see a Elfin Cove dentist as soon as possible.


If you do need wisdom teeth extraction, your doctor will determine how they will go about the removal to make certain everything goes smoothly. They will decide which of your wisdom teeth need to be removed and how complex it will be. They will also determine the appropriate type of sedation and the position of your existing vital anatomy such as nerves. Once they ascertain these facts, they can plan your wisdom teeth extraction more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation option, so you will not experience discomfort. 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 get information about the recovery period. Fortunately, there are many Elfin Cove dentists that accept Aetna and can effectively extract your wisdom teeth.

It is important for your little ones to visit a pediatric dentist bi-yearly for exams and cleanings. By teaching your children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a pediatric dental office in Elfin Cove who takes Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children with protective 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 molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80%. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your child’s teeth. While enamel is one of the most durable substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Elfin Cove.

Many individuals would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see countless products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional tooth bleaching can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Elfin Cove, AK that takes Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Elfin Cove dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment 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 choose whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe peroxide solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for roughly two weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to book a consultation online with a Elfin Cove dentist that accepts Aetna, we can help you find the best ones.

During this portion of your consultation, the dentist will thoroughly look at your oral cavity to identify any potential issues.

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.
