A lot happens to our smile 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 mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you book an online appointment with a great Tenakee Springs oral surgeon who is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and performs this care. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your gums. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles may be recommended too. We could also recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible bone.


Once the area heals, the dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. 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 Tenakee Springs, AK who offers ridge augmentation, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your care fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications 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 loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of calcium and phosphate to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance 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 Tenakee Springs, AK who can strengthen your smile.


As discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of grafting, your Tenakee Springs dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate new support structure. The new structure can support one or more implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth can then last for decades to come, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened maxillary jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Tenakee Springs, AK dental professional who can provide these services 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 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!

It is paramount for children to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for exams and cleanings. By teaching children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dental office in Tenakee Springs who accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations 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 barrier between their permanent teeth and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to eighty percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps bolster your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Tenakee Springs.

Many individuals would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see countless products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Tenakee Springs, AK that works with Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Tenakee Springs dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home treatment. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. For this option, your dentist will apply a gel solution to your teeth that they will then activate with a special light, to remove stains.

If you would prefer to get 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 whitening solution. You will wear these for one or two hours each day for roughly two weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Tenakee Springs dentist that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find a great 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.
