Periodontitis is a common oral health issue. In fact, studies from the Centers for Disease Control reveal about 50% of adults over the age of thirty suffer from the disease. Without treatment, gum disease could reach an advanced stage. Known as periodontitis, this is actually the most common cause of adult tooth loss. All that to say, when you develop discomfort in the gums, you should seek help as soon as you can. Sore, red gums that bleed easily, along with receding tissues, are common indicators that you need to consult a Port Alexander general dentist.


Doctor Network’s search tool can streamline searching for gentle dentists in Port Alexander AK that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer a treatment plan after examining your smile. If there is any sign of inflammation, then a treatment plan can be created. For mild to moderate periodontitis, a scaling and root planing followed by traditional cleanings every three to four months could help you avoid tooth loss. For the more advanced stage, there are options like gum grafts, laser dentistry, and more to restore your smile!

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Kids need routine dental exams as well, and they need to be monitored by a dentist for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, the eruption of the third molars. If you need to request an online appointment a family dentist in Port Alexander, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin as early as age two, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Port Alexander pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then intervention might be needed. In addition, kids can often receive a topical fluoride gel to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth decay. Dental sealants, which coat the occlusal surfaces of the posterior teeth, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, this layer of acrylic can last as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Port Alexander who can offer care for kids, let us know. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care kids not only can enjoy healthy smiles, but they also understand the importance of good oral hygiene. These visits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy smiles. All of it starts with that first checkup and cleaning. So, use our search tool to find the best practice for you and your children!

When winter ends, people start going out and enjoying the weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek to brighten their teeth. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to improve imperfections. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding and gaps can be fixed with Invisalign®. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of a stunning smile. We want to help connect you to Port Alexander dentists who take on patients who have Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve a perfect smile.


Correcting your smile starts with a consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Port Alexander, AK. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using intraoral camera technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause of your esthetic concerns in order to come up with a tailored treatment for your smile. For stains, professional teeth whitening could correct discolored teeth. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring employs dental lasers to reshape the gum line and protect your periodontal health. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with malocclusion, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you don’t have a cosmetic dentist in the Port Alexander, AK area, we can help! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Blue Cross Blue Shield. We want to help you obtain a smile that is also healthy and strong!

According to the research by the Centers for Disease Control, over half of adults older than 30 suffer from gingival disease. Without intervention, this condition could lead to painful symptoms, including bleeding gums. The advanced stage, known as periodontitis, could also cause adult tooth loss. This is why care from a Port Alexander dentist is necessary when you begin to notice sore and bleeding gums. We can help by connecting you to one that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield. After all, your smile needs regular attention!


How does the gum disease start? The changes to your gum tissue could occur due to improper brushing and flossing. Others could develop it due to infrequent dental cleanings, or due to certain medications, inflammatory illness, tobacco use, or even gum disease in other family members. As we touched on above, warning signs include discomfort and bleeding in the gums. By seeing a dentist in Port Alexander, AK you can receive gum treatments like pocket reduction surgery to bring relief and improve your oral health. These treatment options could be accepted by insurance plans.


If you notice these signs, or if you simply haven’t been to a dentist in recent months, you should schedule a visit. At Doctors Network, we can connect you to dentists in Port Alexander who accept Blue Cross Blue Shield. A healthy and whole smile is always possible, and we can help help you find the help you need!

It is important for kids to visit the dentist bi-yearly for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your kids great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a kids dentist in Port Alexander who accepts 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 one with protective 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 back teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of infection 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 great tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most durable substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Port Alexander.

Many people would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any drug store, you see myriad products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried 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 Port Alexander, AK that works with Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Port Alexander dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home treatment 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 at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe bleaching or peroxide solution. You will wear these for one or two hours each day for about two weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Port Alexander dentist that accepts 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.
