As children, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a professional and friendly in-network dentist in Nunapitchuk, AK who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will help connect you to an amazing dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, providing lifelike results. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Nunapitchuk‘s neighborhoods and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!


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

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with missing teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial dentures are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but possibly a lifetime with proper care.


Are you ready to replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you are wondering how much a dental implant costs near you in Nunapitchuk, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Nunapitchuk dentist who can offer implant dentistry. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dental professional who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also accepts walk-in patients. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying issues like gum disease may need to be treated before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer quality prosthetics that look and function like natural ones!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating your favorite foods. Even speaking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged appearance. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a great Nunapitchuk oral surgeon who is in-network with Obama Care and provides jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your mandible. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials could also be used. Some opt for synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible bone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible dental implants could be placed. The body will accept them as natural roots. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Nunapitchuk, AK who offers ridge augmentation, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact how easily you eat your favorite foods, or how clearly you can talk. But the most serious complication is the break down of structure in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address lost teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Nunapitchuk, AK who can shore up your jaw.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of a grafting procedure, your Nunapitchuk dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new tissues. The new structure can support dental implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to preserve the area. Your new teeth then last for decades to come, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Nunapitchuk, AK oral surgeon who can address tooth loss and takes uninsured patients. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a whole smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

Have you lost the majority of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean major problems for your smile, from trouble eating a variety of foods, to difficulties with clear speech. Your jaw loses density and mass following tooth loss, which could lead to further tooth loss. In some cases, a breakdown in the facial structures could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to keep the jawbone strong. But what if your jaw is too weak for traditional implant dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Nunapitchuk cosmetic dentist who specializes in All-On-4 procedure.


Most implant-supported dentures need between six and eight implants per jaw. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw has begun to break down this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo ridge augmentation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a full set of dentures attached on the same visit. In fact, that’s why this is often referred to as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best private dentists in Nunapitchuk who can restore your new smile. You can even schedule a dental appointment.


If you have concerns regarding the cost of dental implants, then consider getting our Direct Dental Plan. Our simple membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on prosthetic dentistry. This helps our Nunapitchuk patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

Do you have Loose teeth? Or, have you suffered having multiple missing teeth in your smile? If so, this could mean more than just embarrassing gaps in your smile. Over time, the function and health of your smile suffers. In fact, you could even lose many youthful features! To safeguard the health, function, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dental practice in Nunapitchuk, and we can help you find dentists that accept dental insurance!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, leading to crooked or crowded teeth. The pressure on your tempromandibular joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMJ disorder or bruxism. You could have difficulty consuming solid foods, and speaking clearly could become challenging too. But the most severe complication is the break down of the jawbone structure. This means the stability of your smile is compromised. In addition, a prematurely aged appearance could arise! But help is available, as Nunapitchuk dentists could discuss custom-made bridges and dentures, and select treatment options that could be covered with dental insurance.


Dental bridges could address a single gap in the smile. Dentures could replace the majority or all of your natural teeth. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Nunapitchuk dentists who perform dental implants. Do not let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a prosthodontist!

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.
