Perhaps, the most common reason to search for a dentist is a toothache. While temporary aches could occur for multiple reasons, including sinus concerns or changes in elevation, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For example, a lingering tooth pain could be caused by the presence of a cavity, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have an aching tooth, you most likely need a dentist. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Mentasta Lake, AK community who takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield!


When the dental professional examines your smile, digital x-rays are used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. then, a dental restoration is chosen. For children and adults alike, a tooth-filling made from biocompatible material could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to treat advanced decay. If possible, the dentist will take steps to use more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance. If you have a toothache, use our search module to find Mentasta Lake dentists who are open on Sundays and request an appointment.

Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from routine dental treatment. Children need routine preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a dental professional for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, the eruption of the wisdom teeth. If you need to request an online appointment a pediatric dental professional in Mentasta Lake, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Routine examinations should begin as early as age two, and should be scheduled twice a year. These visits enable your Mentasta Lake 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 fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth decay. Sealants, which coat the occlusal surfaces of the posterior teeth, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, these protective sealants can protect the teeth as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield family dentists in Mentasta Lake who can offer care for kids, contact us. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care children not only can enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also understand the importance of good oral hygiene. Good oral health habits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that first checkup and cleaning. So, use our search tool to find the right practice for you and your family!

We’ve reached the time of the year when children and adults alike will be playing sports. While we hope everyone has a great time, we know that they could sustain dental trauma. In some situations, especially when it comes to contact sports, teeth could become compromised, and when trauma occurs, care is needed. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of infected or abscessed teeth. Doctors Network can help you access a 24-hour emergency care center in Mentasta Lake, AK who can assess the situation.


The outer layer of the tooth protects the dentition. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the onset of tooth decay. But when a tooth is chipped, it could increase the risk of tooth decay. You need treatment even if the damage appears minor. Likewise, you can always let us know if you need a Mentasta Lake dentist who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield for more minor complaints. Unexplained discomfort and objects caught between the teeth could compromise your smile. Don’t forget that knocked out teeth could lead to serious problems as well. You also need care if a tooth filling or any kind of dental restoration is compromised!


Once you visit Doctors Network and begin the search for your Mentasta Lake, AK dentist, take steps to avoid complications by taking a store bought pain medication. Cloth or gauze can stem bleeding. Applying an ice pack can ease facial swelling too. If a tooth is damaged or knocked loose, recover the tooth or any pieces and bring them with you. They can be placed in a glass of cold milk or salt water.

When the season changes, people go out more to enjoy the beautiful weather, and of course, we want our smiles to shine when we socialize, which is why many people seek to undergo cosmetic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed purely to correct common esthetic issues. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding and gaps can be fixed with Invisalign®. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of bright, healthy teeth. We want to help you book an online appointment with Mentasta Lake dentists who take on patients who have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer the range of treatment needed to transform your teeth.


The first step toward a new smile is a comprehensive exam with your cosmetic dentist in Mentasta Lake, AK. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using intraoral camera technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent of your concerns in order to come up with a tailored treatment for your smile. For stains, professional teeth whitening could brighten smiles by several shades. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring employs dental lasers to reshape the gum line and manage gum disease. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with malocclusion, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you don’t have a cosmetic dentist in the Mentasta Lake, AK area, we can connect you with one! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. We want to help you obtain a smile that is also healthy and strong!

After all, your smile needs regular attention!


How does the gum disease start? The changes to your gum tissue could occur due to improper brushing and flossing. Some could develop it due to infrequent dental cleanings, or due to certain medications, inflammatory illness, tobacco use, or even a family history of the disease. As discussed above, warning signs include red, sore, and bleeding gums. By seeing a dentist in Mentasta Lake, AK you can receive periodontal treatments like gum grafting to bring relief and improve your oral health.

It is essential for your little ones to visit a dental professional bi-yearly for exams and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a dentist in Mentasta Lake who takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


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


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel layer. While enamel is one of the most durable 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 fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Mentasta Lake.

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.
