As children, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, in adulthood, losing teeth means poor oral health. The advanced stage of gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a dedicated Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Tuluksak, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jaw and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Tuluksak‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!


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

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is chipped, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop caries and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only tooth loss, but a spread of infection to other areas of the jaw. But sometimes, the cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a tooth filling or a root canal. Instead, the tooth could require an extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you book a visit with a Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist or oral surgeon in Tuluksak, AK who can provide a effective 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. Removing a tooth could restore overall balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for orthodontic treatment! 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 full or partial dentures. Your Tuluksak dentist could use the procedure to improve the function and health of your smile.


Now that you understand when and why a tooth may need to be taken out, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can find a general dentist in the Tuluksak, 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 low monthly cost. For some, this could discount care by up to ninety percent!

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom tooth extracted and are eager to divulge their experience to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a dental professional. If you need these teeth removed, it is best to have lots of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth removal and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Tuluksak, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


Wisdom teeth are located in the back of your mouth, and there is one on each quadrant. They usually appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because they are the last teeth to erupt, their presence can cause complications with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual directions, 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 painful and can harm your dentition. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth eruption, it is important to see a Tuluksak oral surgery specialist as soon as possible.


If you in fact need wisdom teeth extraction, your dentist will determine how they will go about the procedure to make certain everything goes without complications. They will decide how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also decide the appropriate type of sedation and the condition of your existing teeth. Once they ascertain this information, they can extract your wisdom teeth more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate anesthesia, so you will not feel discomfort. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are ok. Once your wisdom teeth are removed, you will receive post-operative instructions. Fortunately, there are many Tuluksak dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can skillfully extract your wisdom teeth.

It is paramount for kids to visit the dentist bi-yearly for checkups and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist in Tuluksak 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 kid 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 molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to eighty percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps bolster your child’s enamel. 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 cavities. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Tuluksak.

Many individuals would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any drug store, you see numerous products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Tuluksak, AK that works with Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Tuluksak dental practice, they can provide you with either an in-office or even 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 choose 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 one or two hours each day for approximately two weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Tuluksak 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.
