When a tooth develops an infection, treatment is necessary. Not seeking care means the tooth could become necrotic. At this stage, the tooth may require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into other parts of the smile. Often, 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 schedule an appointment with one of our knowledgeable Akiachak dentists for additional endodontic treatment.


Root canal treatment involves removing the tissues from the tooth’s interior. The interiors and root canals are thoroughly 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 tooth crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also look natural. But if there are complications with the procedure, the prognosis of the condition could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and complications with eating. If you experience discomfort, do not risk the loss of your teeth. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in Akiachak, AK that can offer retreatment and accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


If you don’t have dental insurance don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a discount dental plan to make dental care budget-friendly. With a simple monthly rate, you can obtain a root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

When a tooth is decayed, it could become infected. The presence of an abscessed tooth means serious discomfort, and without intervention, it could result in missing teeth. This is why your tooth may need treatment. Fortunately, there are options available to stop painful infections. Our network can help connect you to a Akiachak endodontist for lifelike restorative care. We can also help find an endodontist that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


A dental infection means that harmful anaerobic bacteria have made contact with the inner pulp. The pulp is the nerve center of the tooth, and it ensures a functional tooth. Lack of intervention for an infection could allow symptoms to grow worse. A common warning sign of trouble could include swelling near the aching tooth. Don’t ignore a potential symptom. Talk to our team about finding a Akiachak root canal specialist who accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield and payment plan options.


A root canal procedure is a comfortable treatment that can be completed in one sitting. Essentially, after the dental specialist plans the treatment, the infected tissues are removed from within. The interior of the tooth is cleaned, and a special restorative material is added. The last step involves capping the tooth with a porcelain or metal crown. The cap is designed to protect the tooth and appear esthetically pleasing. This treatment prevents tooth loss.


Good dental hygiene habits can help lower your risk of future caries and dental infections. Checkups and cleanings help as well. If you’re looking for treatment in Akiachak for an infected tooth, contact Doctors Network or request an online appointment. You have options, and we know how to find practices that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield.

It is important for children to visit a pediatric dentist twice a year for exams and cleanings. By teaching children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dental office in Akiachak who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child 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 adult molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to eighty percent. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural 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 kid’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 dental practices in Akiachak.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any drug store, you see countless products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Akiachak, AK that takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Akiachak dental care provider, 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 an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe bleaching or peroxide solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to book a visit online with a Akiachak dentist that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find a great one.

If it has been at least half a year since you last saw a dentist, you should schedule a checkup as soon as possible. When you go in for consistent visits, your dentist can thoroughly examine your teeth to make sure nothing is wrong. This helps prevent carious lesions from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more expensive procedures at a later time. If you are looking for a dentist in Akiachak, AK that takes Blue Cross Blue Shield we can help you find a great match.

To begin your visit, a hygienist will clean your teeth thoroughly. This will remove plaque that is difficult to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The dental cleaning will leave your teeth feeling rejuvenated and fresh.

Once your cleaning is done, your Akiachak dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential issues. If they find anything amiss, they will explain your treatment options. The Akiachak dental office we set you up with will offer a myriad of services to address a variety of dental needs. If you visit the dentist regularly 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.

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.
