As children, we lose our baby teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an amazing Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Sterling, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will connect you to an awesome dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your alveolar bone and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Sterling area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

If you have a toothache, or a tooth that is injured, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop a decay and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only missing teeth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the damage or cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a tooth filling. Instead, the tooth could require immediate extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you book a visit with a Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Sterling, AK who can provide a gentle tooth removal as needed.


As we discussed earlier, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontitis. Taking out a tooth could restore overall balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for orthodontic treatment! In many cases, this could prevent wisdom tooth impaction. Removing wisdom teeth prior to eruption helps preserve the balance and smile beauty. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for dentures. Your Sterling general dentist could use this to improve the function and health of your smile.


Now that you understand why and when a tooth may need an extraction, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can find your dentist in the Sterling, AK area. But if you don’t have coverage, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a direct payment plan! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a monthly fee. For some, this could cut the cost of care by up to 90%!

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom tooth removed and are eager to describe their story to you. While this can be helpful, it is still essential to consult with a oral surgeon. If you need these teeth pulled, it is best to have a plethora of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth removal and what you should look for in a dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Sterling, AK that accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Wisdom teeth are in the back of the mouth, and there are two on the top and two on the bottom. They usually appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth are the last adult teeth, their arrival can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual angles, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your existing teeth. When this occurs, they are probably going to be affected by harmful bacteria. If any of these situations happen, it can be very uncomfortable and can affect your existing teeth. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth, it is important to see a Sterling oral surgeon hastily.


If you do need wisdom tooth removal, your oral healthcare professional will determine how they will go about the procedure to ensure everything goes smoothly. They will determine how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it will be. They will also decide the appropriate type of anesthesia and the state of your existing vital anatomy such as nerves. Once they ascertain these facts, they can extract your wisdom teeth more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate anesthesia, so you will not experience any pain. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are doing well. Once your wisdom teeth are pulled, you will receive post-operative instructions. Fortunately, there are many Sterling dentists that accept Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and can effectively extract your wisdom teeth.

It is paramount for kids to visit a dental professional on a biannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a dental office in Sterling who accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering biannual dental checkups and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kid 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 teeth and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of infection by up to 80%. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps bolster your child’s teeth. While enamel is one of the most durable substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Sterling.

When you visit your Sterling dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment.

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.
