As kids, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a professional and friendly Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Newhalen, AK 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 in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Newhalen‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

There is no substitute for showing off a perfect smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with missing teeth. 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 implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial dentures are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but several decades with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost near Newhalen, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Newhalen dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your tooth loss, but also takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network membership plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


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 new teeth that look and function like natural teeth!

Major problems arise when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating your favorite foods. Even talking clearly 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 prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a local Newhalen dentist who is in-network with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and provides ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your mandible. 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. We could also recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jaw.


Once the area heals, the 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 in Newhalen, AK who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to several problems for your smile. For example, this could impact how easily you eat your favorite foods, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the break down of structure in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address lost teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Newhalen, AK who can make smiles ready for implants.


As discussed in previous posts, a bone grafting 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 Newhalen dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to induce the formation of new support structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened maxillary jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Newhalen, AK dental professional 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 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 fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

What happens when you lose your teeth? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your tempromandibular joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like jaw joint strain and chronic teeth grinding. You could have difficulty eating your favorite foods, and speaking clearly could be difficult too. But the most serious complication is the the weakening of the jaw. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Newhalen dentists or prosthodontists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Dental bridges could replace one to three missing teeth in a row. All on four dental implants could provide solutions for more severe cases. For the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Newhalen dentists that perform implants.

It is essential for children to visit a pediatric dentist twice a year for checkups and cleanings. By teaching your children preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a kids’ dentist in Newhalen 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 dental sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their back molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to eighty percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your child’s enamel layer. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Newhalen.

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.
