One of the most common reasons to search for a dentist is a toothache. While temporary aches could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus concerns, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For example, a lasting toothache could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you probably need a tooth-filling. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Ketchikan, AK community 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. From there, the right treatment is chosen. For children and adults alike, a tooth-filling made from a composite resin could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to treat more severe cases. When possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance. If you have a toothache, use our search module to find Ketchikan walk-in dentists and book an appointment.

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from routine dental treatment. Children need routine checkups and cleanings 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 schedule an appointment online with a family dentist in Ketchikan, AK with experience treating smiles of all ages, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin when all baby teeth come in, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Ketchikan 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 can be administered. In addition, kids can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, these protective sealants can protect the teeth as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Ketchikan who can offer care for kids, contact us. We want to help you find a dentist in your area. With routine care kids not only can enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also understand the importance of caring for their smiles. These visits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy smiles. All of it starts with that initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the best dentist for you and your family!

We have 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. Sometimes, especially when it comes to contact sports, teeth could be damaged, and when dental trauma occurs, you need emergency treatment. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of tooth decay. Doctors Network can help you find a 24-hour emergency care center in Ketchikan, AK who can repair your smile.


The outside of each tooth is coated in enamel. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from oral health complications. But when a tooth is broken, chipped, or cracked, it could alter the appearance of your smile. You need treatment even if the damage appears minor. Likewise, you should let us know if you need a Ketchikan dentist who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield for less severe emergencies. Persistent 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 crown or tooth filling is compromised!


Once you visit Doctors Network and begin searching for your Ketchikan, AK dentist, take steps to avoid complications by taking a store bought pain medication. Cloth or gauze can be helpful also. A cold compress 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 milk or salt water.

When winter ends, 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 find great Ketchikan dentists who take on patients who have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


You can start cosmetic treatments with a consultation with your dentist in Ketchikan, AK. The doctor will carefully assess your cosmetic concerns. Using digital technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause of your cosmetic concerns 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 address dental damage 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 Ketchikan, 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 makes you feel great!

When a tooth develops an infection, treatment is necessary. Lack of treatment means the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth may require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into surrounding teeth. If posible, a better treatment for an infected tooth is an endodontic treatment. The procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again, and treatment is once again necessary. You may need to book an appointment with one of our Ketchikan dentists for a root canal retreatment.


Root canal treatment involves removing the tissues from inside of the tooth. The interiors and root canals are thoroughly cleaned, and a restorative material, AKA gutta percha, is then added to the tooth. Usually, the tooth is then capped with a porcelain crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also match the rest of the smile. But if the procedure does not go as expected, the health of the tooth could be compromised. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience this, do not risk the loss of your teeth. Doctors Network can connect you with a dental office in Ketchikan, AK that can offer another root canal 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 care affordable. With a simple monthly rate, you can undergo necessary root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

Major problems arise when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even clear speech 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 limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you find a great Ketchikan oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and provides this care. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make dental care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your gums. Your dentist could use various sources. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials 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, biocompatible 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 Ketchikan, AK who offers ridge augmentation, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits 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.
