As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth means poor oral health. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a professional and friendly Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Shandon, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your alveolar bone and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Shandon area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please applaud our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

You can’t put a price on an attractive smile, but as we get older, many of us struggle with missing teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial dentures are locked into these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care.


Are you ready to replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you want to know how much dental implants cost in Shandon, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Shandon dentist who can offer prosthetic dentistry. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will assess the state of your smile. Underlying factors may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer quality prosthetics that look and function like natural dentition!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even talking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged appearance. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you find a local Shandon oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make dental care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your gums. Your dentist could use various sources. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials could be employed as well. Others recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, the dental implants could be placed. The body will accept them as natural roots. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Shandon, CA who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most severe complication is the break down of structure in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Shandon, CA who can shore up your jaw.


As we’ve 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 a grafting procedure, your Shandon dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to induce the formation of new tissues. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. 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 one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Shandon, CA dentist who can address tooth loss and takes 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 optimal oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our financing option. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile can happen!

Have you lost all of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean complications with bite functions, from trouble masticating a variety of foods, to difficulties with clear speech. Your jaw loses bone density following tooth loss, which could lead to worsening dental health. In some cases, a breakdown in the facial structures could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to keep the jawbone strong. But what if your jaw is too weak for a set of implant-secured dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Shandon dentist who specializes in performing All-On-4s.


Traditional implant-supported dentures need between 6 and 8 dental implants per jaw. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw has begun to break down this could still support a full set of tooth replacement. No need to undergo jawbone grafting or sinus lifts beforehand! These can also often be placed with a full set of dentures attached on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Shandon who can provide you with a new smile. You can even book an online dental appointment.


If you have concerns regarding the cost of dental implants, then consider getting our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on prosthetic dentistry. This helps our Shandon patients find affordable dental care, and smile with confidence once again.

Do you have Loose teeth? Or, have you developed several gaps in your smile? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, you may suffer major oral health and function complications. In fact, you could even develop major changes to your facial structure! To safeguard the health, beauty, and function of your smile, you need help from a good dental practice near Shandon, and we can help you find local dental practices that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield!


What happens when gaps appear in your smile? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, leading to crooked or crowded teeth. 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 enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become challenging as well. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means the stability of your smile is compromised. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Shandon dental professionals could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Fixed partial dentures could replace one to three missing teeth in a row. Dentures could treat more severe cases with full and partial options. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Shandon dentists who offer dental implants. Do not let your smile continue to degrade, and talk to our team about finding an implantologist!

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.
