As children, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties eating. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an awesome Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Tanaina, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will connect you to a dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with tooth implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jawbones and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Tanaina area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please celebrate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.

Do you have any tooth missing? Or, have you lost several or possibly all of them? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, you may suffer major oral function and health complications. In fact, you could even develop major changes to your facial structures! To replace your missing teeth, you need help from a good dental practice in Tanaina, and we can help you find dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, causing dental misalignment. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMJ disorder or bruxism. You could have difficulty consuming solid foods, and speaking clearly could become complicated too. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means that you could suffer further tooth loss. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Tanaina 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 address minor tooth loss. All on four dental implants could provide solutions for more severe cases. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Tanaina dentists who perform tooth implant. Do not let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a prosthodontist!

It is essential for children to visit a pediatric dentist on a biannual basis for exams and cleanings. By teaching your children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dental professional in Tanaina who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child with sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a barrier between their back molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to 80%. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps fortify your children’s teeth. 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 dental caries. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Tanaina.

Many individuals would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see countless products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased 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 Tanaina, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Tanaina dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home option. 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 at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe bleaching solution. You will put these on for a few hours each day for approximately 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to request a visit with a Tanaina dentist that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find a great one.

If it has been over six months since you last saw a dentist, you probably should schedule a consultation soon. When you go in for bi-yearly dental checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your teeth to make sure nothing is awry. This helps prevent decay from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures in the future. If you are looking for a dentist in Tanaina, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield we can help you find a great office.

When you visit your dentist for a checkup, they will start with a thorough cleaning. This will remove tartar that is hard to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The cleaning will leave your teeth feeling fresh and rejuvenated.

Once your cleaning is over, your Tanaina dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential complications. Should they notice something awry, they can suggest the proper treatment. The Tanaina dental office we set you up with will offer comprehensive services to address a variety of dental needs. When you visit the dentist consistently they can keep track of the health of your mouth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment with a dentist that takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find a great one.

More than a quarter of Alaska’s residents are under the age of 18, and as they grow, their dental health needs will constantly evolve. Maintaining a regular schedule of preventive dental visits can be costly enough, especially without dental insurance. When more complex dental health needs become apparent, those costs can skyrocket, and dental insurance is not always enough to adequately cover them. With a direct dental plan from Doctors Network and your primary dentist’s office, you can ensure that you and your family will always have access to the personalized, high-quality care that you deserve. For instance, checkups and cleanings are only $25 per visit, and you can enjoy discounts of up to 90% on treatments such as fillings, crowns, teeth-whitening, Invisalign® aligners, and more.

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.
