As children, we lose our primary teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in North La Junta, CO who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the North La Junta area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get 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 congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we get older, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts inserted into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial 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 tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost near you in North La Junta, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a North La Junta dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental professional who not only can address your tooth loss, but also takes Blue Cross Blue Shield. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network dental plan to reduce the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural teeth!

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 structure 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 tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you book an online appointment with a good North La Junta oral 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 dental care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure 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 like bovine bone could also be used. We could also recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible.


Once the area heals, one or more 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, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist in North La Junta, CO who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our membership 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 phosphate and calcium to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an older 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 North La Junta, CO who can strengthen your smile.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a bone grafting procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of grafting, your North La Junta dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to generate new tissues. The new structure can support dental 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 upper jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a North La Junta, CO dental professional who can address tooth loss 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 dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and optimal oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is in your future!

Have you lost the majority of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean major problems for your smile, from trouble masticating a variety of foods, to difficulties talking. Your jaw loses mass and density following tooth loss, which could lead to the loss of additional teeth. In some cases, an older appearance could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your youthful features. But what if your jaw is too weak for multiple dental implants? Then Doctors Network can recommend a North La Junta dental professional who specializes in dental implant placement.


Traditional implant-supported dentures need between 6 and 8 dental implants per arch. But with All-on-4, only four small posts are necessary. Even if your jaw has begun to break down this could still support a full set of teeth. No need to undergo ridge augmentation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a full set of dentures attached on the same visit. In fact, that’s why this is often referred to as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in North La Junta who can offer these lifelike prosthetics. You can even schedule a dentist visit.


If you questions about the cost, then consider getting our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on major and minor treatments. This helps our North La Junta patients find affordable dental care, and smile with confidence once again.

Do you have Loose teeth? Or, have you lost several of them? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, the health and function of your smile suffers. In fact, you could even develop a prematurely aged appearance! To safeguard the function, health, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dental professional nearby North La Junta, and we can connect you to dental professionals that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, causing dental misalignment. The pressure on your tempromandibular 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 complicated too. But the most serious complication is the break down of the jawbone structure. This means the stability of your smile is compromised. In addition, a prematurely aged appearance could arise! But help is available, as North La Junta dentists or prosthodontists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as implants and fixed partial dentures or bridges, and select treatment options that could be covered with Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Dental bridges 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 North La Junta dentists who offer dental implants. Don’t let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a dentist or prosthodontist!

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.
