A common reason to look for a dentist is to address pain in one or more teeth. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for many different reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For example, a lingering toothache could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have a toothache that lingers, you most likely need a tooth-filling. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Aleknagik, AK area who takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield!


When the dental professional examines your smile, imaging technology is used to assess the severity of the cavity. From there, the appropriate treatment option is chosen. For kids and adult patients alike, a tooth-filling made from a composite resin could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to treat major cavities. If possible, the dentist will take steps to use more lifelike options, so they ensure an attractive smile. If you have a toothache, use our search module to find Aleknagik emergency dentists and book an appointment.

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Children need routine dental exams as well, and they need to be monitored by a dentist for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, the eruption of the third molars. If you need to schedule an appointment online with a family dentist in Aleknagik, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin as soon as all twenty baby teeth erupt, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Aleknagik pediatric dentist to keep track of your child’s dental development, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, children can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, these protective sealants can last as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Aleknagik who can provide children’s dentistry, let us know. 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. Checkups and cleanings can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy smiles. All of it starts with that first checkup and cleaning. So, use our search tool to find the right dentist for you and your children!

We have reached the time of the year when children and adults alike will be getting active. While we hope everyone has a great time, we know that dental injuries are possible. In some situations, especially when it comes to contact sports, teeth could be damaged, and when trauma occurs, you need emergency treatment. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of tooth decay. Doctors Network can help you access a dental professional for dental emergencies in Aleknagik, AK who can examine the situation.


The outer layer of the tooth provides protection against tooth decay. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from oral health complications. But when a tooth is chipped, this could increase the risk of tooth decay. You need treatment even if the damage appears minor. Likewise, you should let us know if you need a Aleknagik emergency dentist who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield for less severe emergencies. Sudden toothaches and objects caught between the teeth could threaten your smile. Don’t forget that loose teeth are causes for concern as well. You also need care if a crown or tooth filling is compromised!


Once you contact Doctors Network and begin the search for your Aleknagik, AK dentist, you should take action by taking over-the-counter medications to ease discomfort. Cloth or gauze can be helpful also. Using 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 to the dentist. They can be placed in a glass of milk or salt water.

When spring arrives, people start going out and enjoying the weather, and of course, we want our smiles to shine when we socialize, which is why many people seek cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to improve imperfections. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding can be treated with orthodontics. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of a stunning smile. We want to help you book an online appointment with Aleknagik dentists who take on patients who have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer the range of treatment needed to transform your teeth.


You can start cosmetic treatments with a consultation with your dentist in Aleknagik, AK. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using digital x-rays for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent of your esthetic concerns to come up with a tailored treatment for your smile. For stains, professional teeth whitening could remove discolorations. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and protect your periodontal health. Porcelain veneers are cosmetic restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with major misalignment, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you do not currently have a dentist in the Aleknagik, AK area, we can help! 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 makes you feel great!

When a tooth becomes infected, treatment is necessary. Lack of treatment means the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth may need to be extracted. Otherwise, the infection moves into other parts of the smile. If posible, a better treatment for an infected tooth is a root canal. The procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again, and retreatment could be needed. You may need to see one of our great Aleknagik endodontists for a root canal redo.


Root canal treatment involves removing the tissues from inside of the tooth. The interiors and root canals are cleaned, and a restorative material known as gutta-percha is then added to the tooth. Usually, the tooth is then restored with a porcelain crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also look natural. But if the procedure does not go as expected, the prognosis of the condition could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience this, do not risk missing teeth. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in Aleknagik, AK that can offer additional treatment and accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


If you don’t have dental coverage don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a membership plan to make your treatment fit your budget. With a monthly membership fee, you can receive a root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. Even clear speech could be a problem. However, the major problem is the break down of density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause patients to look older. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a great Aleknagik oral surgeon who is in-network with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and provides this care. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could use various sources. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles could also be used. We could also recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will see them as natural structures. 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 Aleknagik, AK who offers ridge augmentation, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits in your budget!

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.
