Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Kids require routine checkups and cleanings as well, and they need to be monitored by a dentist for signs of threats to their oral health. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the third molars. If you need to request an online appointment a family dentist in Ester, AK with experience treating smiles of all ages, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Routine examinations should begin as soon as all twenty baby teeth erupt, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Ester pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as toothaches, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, kids can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, sealants can last as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Ester who can provide children’s dentistry, contact us. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care kids not only can enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also learn the value of regular care. Good oral health habits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that first checkup and cleaning. So, use our search tool to find the right dentist for you and your children!

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is injured, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop cavities and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only a lost tooth, but a spread of infection to other areas of the jaw. But sometimes, the damage or 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 connect with a Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist in Ester, AK who can provide a safe tooth removal as needed.


As we discussed earlier, cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by gum disease. Taking out a tooth could return balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for treatment with braces! In many cases, this could prevent the negative impact of wisdom tooth eruption. 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 full or partial dentures. Your Ester general dentist could use this to improve the function, health, and even the beauty of your smile.


Now that you understand when and why a tooth may need an extraction, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can locate a dentist in the Ester, AK area. But if you don’t have dental insurance, 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 percent!

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom tooth extracted and are eager to tell their experiences 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 important to have lots of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from the procedure and what you should look for in a dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Ester, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


The third molars or wisdom teeth are located in the back of the mouth, and there is one on each quadrant. They most commonly appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because they come in later than the rest of your teeth, their presence can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual directions, only partially come in, or overcrowd your existing teeth. When this happens, they are more susceptible to harmful bacteria. If any of these situations happen, it can be very uncomfortable and can harm your teeth. If you think you might have complications with wisdom teeth, it is important to see a Ester oral surgeon hastily.


If you do need wisdom teeth extraction, your dentist will determine how they will go about the procedure to make certain everything goes smoothly. They will decide how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also determine the appropriate type of sedation and the state of your existing teeth and nerve. Once they ascertain these details, they can extract your wisdom teeth more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation option, so you will not feel pain. 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 be provided with information about the recovery period. Fortunately, there are many Ester dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can adeptly extract your wisdom teeth.

It is paramount for children to visit the dentist bi-yearly for exams and cleanings. By teaching your kids 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 pediatric dentist in Ester 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 kid with sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a barrier between their adult molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to 80 percent. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your kids’ dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Ester.

Many individuals would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any pharmacy, 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 provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Ester, AK that works with Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Ester dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home option. If you choose the in-office treatment, you will have brighter teeth within about an hour. For this option, your dentist will apply a gel solution to your teeth that they will then activate with a special light, to remove 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 fill up with a safe bleaching or peroxide solution. You will put these on for one or two hours each day for roughly two weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to schedule a visit online with a Ester 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.
