As children, we lose our primary teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a permanent Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Ninilchik, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can examine your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your alveolar bone and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Ninilchik area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!


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

If you have a toothache, or a tooth that is broken or cracked, you need treatment. Otherwise, the tooth could develop caries and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only missing teeth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the issue is beyond the stage to be treated with a restoration. Instead, the tooth could require immediate removal. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Ninilchik, AK who can provide a safe tooth removal as needed.


As we touched on above, cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontal disease. Taking out a tooth could improve bite balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for treatment with braces! In many cases, this could prevent complications from wisdom teeth. Removing wisdom teeth prior to eruption helps preserve the balance and overall esthetics. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for dentures. Your Ninilchik dentist could use this to improve the function, health, and even the beauty of your smile.


Now that you understand why a tooth may need to be taken out, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in the Ninilchik, AK area. But if you don’t have a dental plan, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a payment plan! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a monthly fee. For some, this could discount care by up to 90%!

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom teeth extracted and are eager to divulge their story to you. While this can be helpful, it is still necessary to consult with a oral surgeon. If you need these teeth extracted, it is important to have a plethora of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth removal and what you should look for in a dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Ninilchik, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Wisdom teeth are located in the back of the mouth, and there are two on the top and two on the bottom. They typically appear between the ages of seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt, their arrival can cause complications with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual angles, only partially come in, or overcrowd your already-established teeth. When this occurs, they are likely to succumb to abscess and infections. If any of these situations happen, it can be very uncomfortable and can harm your existing teeth. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth coming in, it is important to see a Ninilchik dentist or oral surgeon hastily.


If you need wisdom tooth removal, your doctor will determine how they will go about the extraction to make sure everything goes smoothly. They will decide which of your wisdom teeth need to be removed and how complex it will be. They will also decide the appropriate type of anesthesia and the condition of your existing teeth. Once they ascertain these details, they can plan your treatment more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate anesthesia option, so you will not experience pain. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are ok. Once your wisdom teeth are extracted, you will be provided with post-surgery care instructions. Fortunately, there are many Ninilchik dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can adeptly extract your wisdom teeth.

It is crucial for children to visit the dentist on a semiannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a pediatric dental professional in Ninilchik who accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering biannual dental checkups and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with dental sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a shield between their back teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to eighty percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps bolster 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 little one’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Ninilchik.

Many individuals would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any drug store, you see myriad products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Ninilchik, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Ninilchik dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home treatment. If you choose the in-office treatment, you will have brighter teeth within about an hour. When you come in, your dentist will apply a bleaching gel to your front teeth that is then activated with a specialized light that removes discoloration.

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 up with a safe peroxide solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for approximately two weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to request a visit with a Ninilchik dentist that takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find the best ones.

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.
