Adults are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Adolescents require regular preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a pediatric dentist 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 find a family dentist in Sitka, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin when all baby teeth come in, and should be scheduled twice a year. These visits enable your Sitka pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then treatment can be administered. In addition, children can often receive a topical fluoride gel to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth caries. Sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, sealants can last as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for Aetna dentists in Sitka who can offer care for kids, let us know. We want to help you find affordable dental care. With routine care children not only enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also understand the value of regular care. Checkups and cleanings 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 damaged, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop a decay and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only tooth loss, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the issue is beyond the stage to be treated with a tooth filling. Instead, the tooth could require immediate removal. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Aetna dentist in Sitka, AK who can offer a effective tooth extraction as needed.


As we discussed earlier, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontal disease. Taking out 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 smile beauty. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for full or partial dentures. Your Sitka dentist could use the extraction to improve the health, function, and surprisingly, sometimes the appearance of your smile.


Now that you understand when a tooth may need an extraction, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in the Sitka, 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 monthly fee. For some, this could cut the cost of care by up to 90%!

You probably have lots of friends who have had their wisdom teeth pulled and are eager to describe their experience to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a dentist or an oral surgeon. If you need your wisdom teeth extracted, it is important to have a plethora of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from the procedure and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great dentist near you in Sitka, AK that accepts Aetna.


Wisdom teeth are located in the back of your mouth, and there are two on the top and two on the bottom. They usually appear between the ages of seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth are the last adult teeth, their presence can cause complications with your existing ones. They can erupt at odd directions, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your existing teeth. When this happens, they are likely to succumb to bacteria and infections. If any of these situations happen, it can be very painful and can affect your existing teeth. If you think you might have complications with wisdom teeth, it is important to see a Sitka dentist quickly.


If you do need wisdom tooth extraction, your doctor will determine how they will go about the removal to make sure everything goes according to the plan. 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 state of your existing teeth and nerve. Once they ascertain this information, they can plan your wisdom teeth extraction more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate anesthesia option, so you will not experience any pain. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are doing well. Once your wisdom teeth are extracted, you will get information about the recovery period. Fortunately, there are many Sitka dentists that accept Aetna and can skillfully pull your wisdom teeth.

It is important for children to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for checkups and cleanings. By teaching kids how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a dental office in Sitka who accepts Aetna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with dental sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a shield between their back teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80%. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth 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 enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Sitka.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see numerous products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide lackluster results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Sitka, AK that accepts Aetna, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Sitka dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. 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 go with 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 one or two hours each day for approximately 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 Sitka 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.
