As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Allakaket, AK who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will help connect you to an awesome dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Allakaket‘s neighborhoods and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!


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

There is no substitute for an attractive smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures are locked into these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but possibly a lifetime with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you want to know how much dental implants cost near you in Allakaket, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Allakaket dentist who can offer implant 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 takes Blue Cross Blue Shield. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network membership plan to decrease the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will carefully examine your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be treated before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

Major problems arise 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 break down of density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause patients to look older. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a great Allakaket oral surgeon who is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make dental care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge 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 could be employed as well. We could also recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jaw.


Once the area heals, the dental implants could be placed. The body will see them as natural structures. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Allakaket, AK who performs jawbone grafting, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your care fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to several problems for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the structure 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 Allakaket, AK who can shore up your jaw.


As discussed in previous posts, a bone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of adding new tissue, your Allakaket dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to induce the formation of new support structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. 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 a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Allakaket, AK oral surgeon who can address tooth loss and takes Blue Cross Blue Shield. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a full smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and a complete smile. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

Do you have A Loose Tooth? 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 a prematurely aged appearance! To safeguard the health, function, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dental professional in Allakaket, 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, leading to crooked or crowded teeth. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like jaw joint strain and chronic teeth grinding. You could have difficulty consuming solid foods, and speaking clearly could be difficult as well. But the most serious complication is the break down of the jawbone structure. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Allakaket dentists or prosthodontists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Dental bridges could replace one to three missing teeth in a row. All on four dental implants could replace the majority or all of your natural teeth. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Allakaket dentists that perform implants. Don’t let missing teeth complicate your daily life, and talk to our team about finding a dentist or prosthodontist!

It is important for your little ones to visit a pediatric dentist on a biannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist in Allakaket who takes 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 children with sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of infection by up to eighty percent. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps fortify your child’s teeth. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Allakaket.

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.
