Perhaps, the most common reason to look for a dentist is a toothache. While sudden discomfort could occur for multiple reasons, including sinus congestion, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For instance, a lasting tooth pain could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you most likely need a filling placed. Doctors Network can help locate dental care in the Tenakee Springs, AK area who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield!


When the dental professional examines your smile, advanced technology is used to assess the severity of the cavity. From there, the appropriate treatment option is chosen. For children and adult patients alike, a dental filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental cap or crown could also be used to address more severe cases. If possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance. If you have an aching tooth, use our search page to find Tenakee Springs emergency dentists and request an appointment in seconds.

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Adolescents need routine preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a dentist for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the wisdom teeth. If you need to book an appointment with a family dentist in Tenakee Springs, AK with experience providing pediatric dental care, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin when all baby teeth come in, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Tenakee Springs pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as toothaches, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, children can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth caries. Dental sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can strengthen vulnerable adult teeth. In fact, sealants can provide protection against tooth cavities for as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for Blue Cross Blue Shield family dentists in Tenakee Springs who can offer care for kids, let us know. We want to help you find affordable dental care. With routine care children not only can enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also learn the importance of good oral hygiene. Good oral health habits 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 dentist for you and your children!

We have reached the season when adults and children will be playing sports. While we hope everyone has a great time, we know that dental injuries are possible. Sometimes, especially when it comes to contact sports, teeth could be damaged, and when dental trauma occurs, you need dental care. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of tooth decay. Doctors Network can help you book an appointment with an emergency dentist in Tenakee Springs, AK who can repair your smile.


The outer layer of the tooth provides protection against tooth decay. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the risk of dental infection. But when a tooth is fractured, it could increase the risk of tooth decay. You need treatment even if the damage appears minor. Likewise, you can always let us know if you need a Tenakee Springs emergency dentist who accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield for less obvious emergency situations. Sudden toothaches and objects caught between the teeth could compromise your smile. Don’t forget that loose teeth could lead to weakened smiles as well. You also need care if a tooth filling or crown falls out!


After you contact Doctors Network and begin looking for your Tenakee Springs, AK dentist, you can ease your discomfort by taking a store bought pain medication. A piece of cloth can be helpful also. Using an ice pack can ease facial swelling too. If a tooth is damaged or knocked loose, recover the tooth or any pieces and bring them with you to the dentist. They can be placed in a glass of milk or salt water.

When the season changes, people start going out and enjoying the weather, and of course, we want an attractive smile when we socialize, which is why many people seek to undergo cosmetic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to fight teeth stains. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding can be treated with orthodontics. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of a stunning smile. We want to help connect you to Tenakee Springs cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have Blue Cross Blue Shield and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


Correcting your smile starts with a consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Tenakee Springs, AK. The doctor will carefully identify the factors behind your cosmetic issues. Using digital technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent of your esthetic concerns to find the best treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could remove discolorations. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and correct gummy smiles. Porcelain veneers are custom porcelain restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with uneven teeth, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you do not have a cosmetic dentist in the Tenakee Springs, AK area, we can find a dental care provider for you! 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 looks amazing!

When a tooth becomes abscessed, treatment is required. Not seeking care means the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth may need extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into other parts of the smile. If posible, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is an endodontic treatment. This procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again and requires additional care. You may need to book an online appointment with one of our Tenakee Springs endodontists for additional endodontic treatment.


A root canal involves removing the tissues from the inside and root canals. The interiors and root canals are cleaned, and a restorative material known as gutta-percha is then added to the tooth. In many cases, the tooth is then restored with a dental crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also look natural. But if the procedure is not successful, the prognosis of the condition could be unpredictable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and discomfort when biting down. If you experience this type of discomfort, don’t risk the loss of your teeth. Doctors Network can help you find an emergency dentist in Tenakee Springs, AK that can offer another root canal and accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


If you don’t have dental insurance don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a membership plan to make your treatment fit your budget. With a monthly membership fee, you can obtain a root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid 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 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 make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a great Tenakee Springs oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and performs this care. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your mandible. 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 bovine bone particles could also be used. Some opt for synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, one or more 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, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Tenakee Springs, AK who performs jawbone grafting, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits in your budget!

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.
