Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Adolescents require routine preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a pediatric dentist for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, the arrival of wisdom teeth. If you need to book an appointment with a pediatric dentist in Saxman, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin when all baby teeth come in, and should be scheduled twice a year. These visits enable your Saxman pediatric dentist to keep track of your child’s dental development, and if areas of concern develop, such as tooth decay, or gingivitis, then treatment can be administered. In addition, children can often receive a topical fluoride gel to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, these protective sealants can protect the teeth as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Saxman who can provide children’s dentistry, contact us. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care children not only enjoy healthy smiles, but they also understand the value of good oral hygiene. Checkups and cleanings 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 right dentist for you and your children!

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is chipped, you need treatment. 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 areas of the jaw. But sometimes, the issue is beyond the stage to be treated with a restoration. Instead, the tooth could require an extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist or oral surgeon in Saxman, AK who can provide a effective tooth removal as needed.


As we touched on above, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontal disease. Extracting a tooth could improve bite 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 a full prosthetic. Your Saxman dentist could use the extraction to improve the function, health, and even the beauty of your smile.


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

You probably know a lot of people who have had their wisdom tooth pulled and are eager to describe their story to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a dental professional. If you need your wisdom teeth removed, it is important to have a wide range of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth extraction and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Saxman, AK that accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.


The third molars are located in the back of the mouth, and there is one on each quadrant. They typically appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth are the last adult teeth, their appearance can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual angles, only partially come in, or overcrowd your current teeth. When this happens, they are likely to succumb to abscess and infections. If any of these situations happen, it can be very uncomfortable and can harm your existing teeth. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth eruption, it is important to see a Saxman dentist or oral surgeon as soon as possible.


If you need wisdom tooth extraction, your doctor will determine how they will go about the removal to make certain everything goes smoothly. They will decide which of your wisdom teeth need to be removed and how complex it will be. They will also decide the appropriate type of sedation and the state of your existing vital anatomy such as nerves. Once they ascertain these facts, they can plan your wisdom teeth extraction more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation option, so you will not experience discomfort. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are ok. Once your wisdom teeth are removed, you will get post-surgery care instructions. Fortunately, there are many Saxman dentists that accept Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and can effectively remove your wisdom teeth.

It is crucial for kids to visit a pediatric dentist on a biannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your kids how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dentist in Saxman 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 little children with protective sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a shield between their permanent teeth and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80%. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel layer. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Saxman.

Many folks would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see myriad products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Saxman, AK that takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Saxman dental practice, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office treatment option. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. When you come in, your dentist will apply a bleaching gel to your front teeth that is then activated with a specialized light that removes discoloration.

If you would prefer to get an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe peroxide solution. You will put these on for a few hours each day for roughly two weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to book an appointment online with a Saxman dentist that takes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find the best ones.

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.
