When a tooth develops an infection, treatment is necessary. Not seeking care means the tooth could become necrotic. At this stage, the tooth might need extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into surrounding teeth. Often, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is an endodontic treatment. The procedure is effective, but sometimes a root canalled tooth becomes infected again, and treatment is once again necessary. You may need to book an appointment with one of our great Mentasta Lake dentists for additional endodontic treatment.


Root canal treatment involves removing the tissues from the inside and root canals. 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 capped with a tooth crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also look natural. But if there are complications with the procedure, 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 the loss of your teeth. Doctors Network can help you find an endodontist in Mentasta Lake, AK that can offer another root canal and accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


If you don’t have an insurance plan don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a direct dental plan to make your treatment fit your budget. With a simple monthly rate, you can undergo necessary root canal retreatment at a reasonable cost!

When a tooth is decayed, it could become an infected tooth. The presence of an abscessed tooth means serious discomfort, and without intervention, it could lead to progressively worsening discomfort. This is why your tooth may need root canal therapy. Fortunately, there are options available to treat an infection. Our network can help connect you to a Mentasta Lake endodontist for lifelike restorative care. We can also help find a restorative dentist that accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


A dental abscess means that harmful oral bacteria have made contact with sensitive tooth structure. The pulp is the nerve center of the tooth, and it controls the flow of blood and nutrients. Lack of intervention for an infection could allow symptoms to grow worse. A common warning sign of trouble could include sensitivity. Don’t ignore common warning signs. Talk to our team about finding a Mentasta Lake endodontist who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and payment plan options.


A root canal procedure is a restorative dental treatment that can be completed in one sitting. Essentially, after the dentist plans the treatment, the infected tissues are removed from within. The interior of the tooth is cleaned, and a special restorative material is added. The last step involves capping the tooth with a custom-made dental crown. The crown is designed to protect the tooth and look natural. This treatment stops the spread of infection.


Good dental hygiene habits can help lower your risk of future caries and dental infections. Dental exams help as well. If you’re looking for treatment in Mentasta Lake for infected teeth, contact Doctors Network or schedule an online appointment. You have options, and we know how to find practices that accept Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.

It is important for kids to visit a pediatric dentist every six months for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching children preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dental office in Mentasta Lake who accepts 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 little children with sealants. These are small pieces of BPA-free acrylic that dentists paint onto their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their adult molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to 80%. 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 pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to dental caries. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Mentasta Lake.

Many people would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any drug store, you see myriad products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide lackluster results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Mentasta Lake, AK that works with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Mentasta Lake dentist, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office option. With the in-office option, you will typically be out within about an hour, and you will have noticeably whiter teeth. When you visit the office for whitening, your dentist will apply a special bleaching gel that, when activated by a special light, will get rid of stains.

If you would prefer to go with whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill up with a safe peroxide solution. You will put these on for one or two hours each day for approximately 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to schedule an appointment with a Mentasta Lake dentist that accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find a fantastic one.

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.
