Adults are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Children require routine dental exams as well, and they need to be monitored by a dentist for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, the arrival of wisdom teeth. If you need to book an online appointment a family dentist in Koliganek, AK with experience treating smiles of all ages, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin when all baby teeth come in, and should be scheduled twice a year. These visits enable your Koliganek pediatric dentist to keep track of your child’s dental development, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then intervention might be needed. In addition, children can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth cavities. Sealants, which coat the occlusal surfaces of the posterior teeth, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, this layer of acrylic can last as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Blue Cross Blue Shield family dentists in Koliganek who can offer care for kids, let us know. We want to help you find a dentist in your area. With routine care children not only can enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also understand the value of regular care. Checkups and cleanings can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the best practice for you!

If 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 a lost tooth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. 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 immediate extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Blue Cross Blue Shield dentist or oral surgeon in Koliganek, AK who can offer a safe tooth extraction as needed.


As we touched on above, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontal disease. Extracting a tooth could restore overall balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for correcting misalignment! In many cases, this could prevent wisdom tooth impaction. 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 dentures. Your Koliganek general dentist could use this to improve the function and health of your smile.


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

You probably know many people who have had their wisdom tooth removed and are eager to divulge their experiences to you. While this can be helpful, it is still essential to consult with a professional. If you need these teeth pulled, it is important to have a wide range of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from the procedure and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great dentist near you in Koliganek, 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 usually appear between the ages of seventeen and twenty-five. Because wisdom teeth come in later than the rest of your teeth, their arrival can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at odd directions, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your already-established teeth. When this happens, they are more susceptible to abscess and infections. If any of these conditions take place, it can be very painful and can damage your existing teeth. If you think you might have complications with wisdom teeth coming in, it is important to see a Koliganek dentist or oral surgeon quickly.


If you do need wisdom tooth extraction, your doctor will determine how they will go about the removal to make sure everything goes according to the plan. They will decide how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also assess the appropriate type of sedation and the state of your existing vital anatomy such as nerves. Once they ascertain these details, they can plan your treatment more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation 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 pulled, you will receive information about the recovery period. Fortunately, there are many Koliganek dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can skillfully extract your wisdom teeth.

It is paramount for kids to visit a dental professional twice a year for exams and cleanings. By teaching kids great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a dental office in Koliganek who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child with dental sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a shield between their back molars and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80%. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your pediatric dental professionals 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 little one’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, please schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Koliganek.

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

When you visit your Koliganek dentist, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office treatment. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly 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 get whitening at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe bleaching solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to request a visit online with a Koliganek 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.
