One of the most common reasons to look for a dentist is to address discomfort caused by cavities. While sudden discomfort could occur for a number of 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 instance, a lingering tooth pain could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you probably need a filling placed. Doctors Network can help connect you to a dentist in the Skagway, AK community who takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield!


When the dental professional examines your teeth, imaging technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. then, the appropriate treatment option 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 advanced decay. When possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they ensure an attractive smile. If you have a toothache, use our search module to find Skagway emergency dentists and book an appointment.

Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Children need regular checkups and cleanings as well, and they need to be monitored by a pediatric dentist for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, wisdom tooth eruption. If you need to book an appointment with a pediatric dentist in Skagway, AK with experience providing pediatric dental care, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin when all baby teeth come in, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Skagway pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as tooth decay, or gingivitis, then treatment can be administered. In addition, children can often receive preventive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth decay. Sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, this layer of acrylic can last as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield family dentists in Skagway who can provide children’s dentistry, contact us. We want to help you find affordable dental care. With routine care children not only 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 gums and teeth. All of it starts with that first checkup and cleaning. So, use our search tool to find the best practice for you!

We’ve reached the season when children and adults alike will be enjoying sports and outdoor activities. While we hope everyone enjoys their activities, we know that their teeth could be at risk. In some situations, especially when it comes to contact sports, teeth could become cracked or chipped, and when trauma occurs, you need dental care. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of aching teeth. Doctors Network can help you book an appointment with a dentist that is open on weekends in Skagway, AK who can examine the situation.


The outside of each tooth is coated in enamel. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the risk of dental infection. But when a tooth is broken, chipped, or cracked, it could lead to painful symptoms. You need treatment to safeguard your smile. Likewise, you can always let us know if you need a Skagway dentist who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield for more minor complaints. Sudden toothaches and objects caught between the teeth could compromise your smile. Don’t forget that knocked out teeth are causes for concern as well. You also need care if a crown or tooth filling is compromised!


Once you visit Doctors Network and begin looking for your Skagway, AK dentist, you should take action by taking over-the-counter medications to ease discomfort. A piece of cloth or a tea bag 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 winter ends, 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 to brighten their teeth. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to fight teeth stains. Teeth stains can be removed, and even misalignment can be corrected. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of better oral health. We want to help you find great Skagway cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer the range of treatment needed to transform your teeth.


Correcting your smile starts with a cosmetic consultation with your dentist in Skagway, AK. The doctor will carefully identify the factors behind your cosmetic issues. Using digital x-rays for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause and extent of your cosmetic concerns to find a personalized treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could brighten smiles by several shades. Dental bonding and contouring can repair teeth and mask imperfections in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and protect your periodontal health. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with malocclusion, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you do not currently have a dentist in the Skagway, 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 develops an infection, treatment is required. Lack of treatment means the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth might require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into the jaw. If posible, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is a root canal. This procedure is effective, but sometimes a root canalled tooth becomes infected again and requires additional care. You may need to book an online appointment with one of our great Skagway dentists or endodontists for a root canal retreatment.


A root canal involves removing the tissues from the tooth’s interior. The interiors and root canals are thoroughly cleaned, and a restorative material known as gutta percha is then administered. Usually, the tooth is then capped with a tooth 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 health of the tooth could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience this, do not risk tooth loss. Doctors Network can connect you with an urgent care center in Skagway, 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 at a reasonable cost!

Major problems arise 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 loss of structure in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged appearance. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a good Skagway oral surgeon who is in-network with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your mandible. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles may be recommended too. We could also recommend synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, 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, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Skagway, 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.
