Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from routine dental treatment. Adolescents require regular preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a dental professional for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental misalignment, or for teens, the arrival of wisdom teeth. If you need to request an online appointment a family dentist in Sitka, AK with experience providing pediatric dental care, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin as early as age two, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Sitka pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, children can often receive a topical fluoride gel to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth cavities. Sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, sealants can provide protection against tooth cavities for as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Blue Cross Blue Shield dentists in Sitka who can provide children’s dentistry, contact us. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care children not only can enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also understand the value of good oral hygiene. Checkups and cleanings 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 best practice for you and your family!

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is injured, you need dental care. Otherwise, the tooth could develop a decay and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only missing teeth, but a spread of infection to other areas of the jaw. But sometimes, the cavity 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 or oral surgeon in Sitka, AK who can offer a gentle tooth extraction as needed.


As we touched on above, advanced decay or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontitis. Removing a tooth could restore overall 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 smile beauty. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for dentures. Your Sitka general dentist could use the extraction to improve the health, function, and surprisingly, sometimes the appearance 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 find a general dentist in the Sitka, 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 pulled and are eager to describe their story to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a oral surgeon. If you need these teeth extracted, 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 look for in a dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great dentist near you in Sitka, AK that accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield.


The third molars 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 are the last adult teeth, their arrival can cause issues with your existing ones. They can erupt at odd angles, only partially come in, or overcrowd your existing teeth. When this happens, they are more susceptible to abscess and infections. If any of these situations happen, it can be very uncomfortable and can harm your teeth. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth, it is important to see a Sitka oral surgery specialist as soon as possible.


If you need wisdom tooth extraction, your dentist will determine how they will go about the extraction to ensure everything goes without complications. They will determine which of your wisdom teeth need to be removed and how complex it will be. They will also determine the appropriate type of anesthesia and the position of your existing teeth. Once they ascertain this information, they can plan your wisdom teeth extraction 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 look after you the entire time to make sure you are doing well. Once your wisdom teeth are extracted, you will get post-surgery care instructions. Fortunately, there are many Sitka dentists that accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and can adeptly extract your wisdom teeth.

It is important for your little ones to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a dentist in Sitka who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little one with protective sealants. These are small pieces of BPA-free acrylic that dentists paint onto their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their adult teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80 percent. It is a simple tool 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 naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your child’s teeth. 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 cavities. 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 network dental professionals in Sitka.

Many individuals would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see myriad products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Sitka, AK that takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Sitka dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment option. With the in-office option, you will typically be out within about an hour, and you will have noticeably whiter teeth. 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 choose whitening at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill up with a safe bleaching solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to schedule a consultation online with a Sitka 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.
