A common reason to search for a dentist is discomfort caused by cavities. While temporary aches could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For instance, a lingering tooth pain could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have an aching tooth, you most likely need a filling placed. Doctors Network can help connect you to a dentist in the Hobson, AL area near you who takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield!


When the dentist examines your smile, imaging technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. then, a dental restoration is chosen. For kids and adults alike, a dental filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to treat advanced decay. When possible, the dentist will take steps to use more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance. If you have persistent discomfort, use our search module to find Hobson dentists who are open on Saturdays and book an appointment.

Have you ever noticed popping or cracking when you open your mouth? Do you have persistent migraines? If so, this could be related to a common but serious oral health issue. Around 25 million people in the United States suffer from TMD and teeth grinding. Without treatment, these could not only lead to painful symptoms, but actually damage the teeth too! Fortunately, your friends at Doctors Network can connect you to a dental professional in Hobson, AL who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


While very different from one another, one often increases the risk of the other. TMJ disorder develops when the jaw joints undergo excessive strain. This could cause problems opening and closing the mouth fully. Common symptoms include pain in the jaw, head, face, and neck. Bruxism means you grind or clench your teeth nightly. The pressure could cause jaw pain. Teeth grinding could also damage teeth. This damage could lead to decay, infection, and more. Both disorders could be caused by issues that cause bite imbalance, and untreated TMJ disorder could mean eventual teeth grinding, and vice-versa. When you have persistent pain in your head and neck, you should find help. We can even connect you with a dental professional in Hobson who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Treatment options often vary; for some, relief is possible following dental bonding, which improves bite balance. For others, treating malocclusion with orthodontic treatment could ease strain and stop symptoms. The most common option offered by most dental professionals is a custom splint, which fits like a night-guard. If you need to find treatment from a Hobson dentist. then contact our team!

Do you have a severely decayed tooth that needs treatment? If so, the placement of a dental crown could prevent further complications. The restoration is custom-made for your dentition and can provide function, health, and beauty to your smile. Our team can help find you a Hobson, AL dental professional who can restore your teeth, and also who will accept Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. Do not risk a lost tooth!


Your first signs of trouble could be a tooth sensitivity. This could be due to the presence of decayed teeth. As toothache worsens, you could risk the spread of infection or even missing teeth. An injury that chips a tooth could also lead to complications like infection and tooth decay with time. In such cases, restorative treatment is usually necessary. If the tooth defect is too severe for a dental filling, then you may need a full dental restoration.


The dental crown is a durable restoration. Once placed, this will cover the entire visible portion of your tooth. They could be made from strong materials like metal. However, lots of dentists in the Hobson, AL area offer more aesthetic options entirely made from ceramic. The total placement process takes one to two visits on average. The restoration, whether we use a metal or more natural-looking options, will be custom-made for your smile. The custom nature of this dental prosthetic helps ensure a balanced occlusion, protecting your teeth from the development of TMD. If you have teeth that need repair then talk to Doctors Network. We can help you find the dental practices that meet your needs and take Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.

It is important for your little ones to visit a dental professional on a semiannual basis for exams and cleanings. By teaching children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a dental office in Hobson who takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child with 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 adult teeth and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of infection by up to 80 percent. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps strengthen your child’s teeth. 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 decay. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Hobson.

Many individuals would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you stroll down the aisles of any drug store, you see countless products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Hobson, AL that takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Hobson dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home 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 an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe bleaching or peroxide solution. You will wear these for one or two hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to request a visit with a Hobson dentist that takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find a fantastic one.

Over 16% of Alabama residents are over the age of 65, while almost 23% are under the age of 18. For both age groups, personalized dental care is especially important. Older patients often require restoration or prosthodontic care to replace lost teeth; younger patients may need additional ongoing preventive measures, such as orthodontics, to avoid more serious issues later in life. On top of routine general dental care, treatment for seniors and children can cause the costs of your family’s dental care to skyrocket. Fortunately, Doctors Network offers families throughout Alabama a highly affordable alternative to managing dental care costs with a direct dental plan.

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.
