Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Adolescents need routine checkups and cleanings as well, and they need to be monitored by a dental professional for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the wisdom teeth. If you need to find a pediatric dentist in Chitina, AK with experience treating smiles of all ages, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin as soon as all twenty baby teeth erupt, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Chitina pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as toothaches, or gingivitis, then intervention might be needed. In addition, children can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can strengthen vulnerable adult teeth. In fact, these protective sealants can last as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Chitina who can offer care for kids, contact us. We want to help you find a dentist in your area. With routine care children not only can enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also understand the value of regular care. These visits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that first consultation. So, use our search tool to find the right practice for you!

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is damaged, you need treatment. Otherwise, the tooth could develop cavities and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only missing teeth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a tooth filling. 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 Chitina, 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 periodontitis. Taking out a tooth could return balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for correcting misalignment! In many cases, this could prevent complications from wisdom teeth. Removing wisdom teeth prior to eruption helps preserve the balance and appearance of your smile. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for a full prosthetic. Your Chitina general dentist could use the extraction to improve the function, health, and even the beauty of your smile.


Now that you understand why and when a tooth may require removal, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can find a great dental practice in the Chitina, AK area. But if you don’t have coverage, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a direct payment plan! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a small fee each month. For some, this could reduce the cost of care by up to 90%!

You probably have lots of friends who have had their wisdom teeth pulled and are eager to tell their story to you. While this can be helpful, it is still necessary to consult with a professional. If you need your wisdom teeth removed, it is best to have lots of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth extraction and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Chitina, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


The third molars are in the back of your mouth, and there are two on the top and two on the bottom. They most commonly appear between the ages of seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth come in later than the rest of your teeth, their appearance can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual directions, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your current teeth. When this occurs, they are probably going to be affected by abscess and infections. If any of these situations happen, it can be very uncomfortable and can damage your existing teeth. If you think you might have issues with wisdom teeth, it is important to see a Chitina dentist or oral surgeon quickly.


If you do need wisdom tooth removal, your dentist will determine how they will go about the extraction to ensure everything goes according to the plan. They will determine how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also assess the appropriate type of anesthesia and the state of your existing vital anatomy such as nerves. Once they ascertain these details, they can plan your wisdom teeth extraction 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 doing well. Once your wisdom teeth are removed, you will be provided with information about the recovery period. Fortunately, there are many Chitina dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can skillfully pull your wisdom teeth.

It is essential for children to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your children preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dental professional in Chitina who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering biannual dental checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little one with protective 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 back teeth and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to eighty percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps bolster your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most durable substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Chitina.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see myriad products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide lackluster results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Chitina, AK that works with Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Chitina dentist, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office treatment option. If you choose the in-office treatment, you will have brighter teeth within about an hour. 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 whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe peroxide or bleaching solution. You will wear these for a few hours each day for roughly two weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to book an appointment with a Chitina dentist that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find the best ones.

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.
