Adults are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Children need regular dental exams as well, and they need to be monitored by a dental professional for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the arrival of wisdom teeth. If you need to book an online appointment a pediatric dentist in Minto, AK with experience treating smiles of all ages, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Routine examinations should begin as early as age two, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Minto pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as toothaches, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, kids can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth cavities. Sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, these protective sealants can last as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for Aetna dentists in Minto who can offer care for kids, contact us. We want to help you find affordable dental care. With routine care kids not only enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also understand the importance of caring for their smiles. These visits 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 right practice for you and your family!

If you have a toothache, or a tooth that is chipped, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop caries and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only tooth loss, but a spread of infection to other areas of the jaw. But sometimes, the cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a tooth filling or a root canal. Instead, the tooth could require immediate removal. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Aetna dentist or oral surgeon in Minto, AK who can provide a safe tooth removal as needed.


As we discussed earlier, advanced decay or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by gum disease. Taking out a tooth could return balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for treatment with braces! In many cases, this could prevent complications from wisdom teeth. 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 full or partial dentures. Your Minto general dentist could use this to improve the health, function, and surprisingly, sometimes the appearance 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 Minto, AK area. But if you don’t have a dental plan, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a direct payment plan! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a small fee each month. For some, this could cut the cost of care by up to ninety percent!

You probably have lots of friends who have had their wisdom tooth removed and are eager to divulge their experience to you. While this can be helpful, it is still essential to consult with a dental professional. If you need your wisdom teeth extracted, it is important to have a wide range of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth extraction and what you should look for in a dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Minto, AK that accepts Aetna.


Wisdom teeth are in the back of your mouth, and there is one on each quadrant. They most commonly appear between the ages of seventeen and twenty-five. Because they come in later than the rest of your teeth, their presence can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at odd angles, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your current teeth. When this occurs, they are likely to succumb to harmful bacteria. If any of these conditions take place, it can be very uncomfortable and can affect your dentition. If you think you might have complications with wisdom teeth coming in, it is important to see a Minto dentist as soon as possible.


If you in fact need wisdom tooth removal, your doctor will determine how they will go about the removal to make certain everything goes smoothly. They will determine how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. 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 treatment more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation option, 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 ok. Once your wisdom teeth are extracted, you will be provided with post-operative instructions. Fortunately, there are many Minto dentists that accept Aetna and can adeptly pull your wisdom teeth.

It is imperative for kids to visit a dental professional on a semiannual basis for checkups and cleanings. By teaching children preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a dental office in Minto who takes Aetna, you are on the right website.


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


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Minto.

Many people would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you stroll down the aisles of any drug store, you see numerous products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Minto, AK that takes Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Minto dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or 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 go with whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill up with a safe bleaching solution. You will put these on for one or two 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 book an appointment with a Minto dentist that takes 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.
