As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a dedicated Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Alpaugh, CA who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be stablized with multiple dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Alpaugh‘s neighborhoods and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

You can’t put a price on an attractive smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs near Alpaugh, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Alpaugh dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also works with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network membership plan to reduce the cost of your treatment.


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 teeth!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even talking 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 an older appearance. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a good Alpaugh oral surgeon who is in-network with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and performs ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles could be employed as well. Some opt for synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. 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 Alpaugh, CA who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an older appearance and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Alpaugh, CA who can make smiles ready for implants.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of adding new tissue, your Alpaugh dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new bone structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to preserve the area. Your new teeth can then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Alpaugh, CA oral surgeon who can offer a sinus lift and takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

Have you lost all of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean complications with bite functions, from trouble masticating a variety of foods, to difficulties with clear speech. Your jaw loses mass and density following tooth loss, which could lead to worsening dental health. In some cases, an older appearance 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 multiple dental implants? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Alpaugh dentist who specializes in dental implant placement.


Most implant dentures need between six and eight dental implants per jaw. But with All-on-4, just four implants are required. Even if your jaw has lost mass and density this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo bone ridge preservation beforehand! These can also often be placed with the denture attached on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Alpaugh who can restore your new smile. You can even request a dental visit.


If you questions about the cost, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on major and minor treatments. This helps our Alpaugh patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

You could have difficulty enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become difficult as well. But the most severe complication is the the weakening of the jaw. This means that you could suffer further tooth loss. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Alpaugh dentists could discuss dental prosthetics that fit your smile, and select treatment options that could be covered with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Dental bridges could address a single gap in the smile. All on 4 dental implants could replace the majority or all of your natural teeth.

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.
