A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating your favorite foods. Even speaking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a great Akutan dentist who is in-network with Obama Care and performs this care. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your mandible. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles could be employed as well. Others recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible bone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Akutan, AK who performs jawbone grafting, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your treatment fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact how easily you eat your favorite foods, or how clearly you can talk. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Akutan, AK who can strengthen your smile.


As discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of grafting, your Akutan dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to generate new tissues. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. Your new teeth can then last for decades to come, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Akutan, AK dental professional who can provide these services and takes uninsured patients. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and optimal oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our financing option. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

It is important for children to visit the dentist on a semiannual basis for exams and cleanings. By teaching children preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a kids’ dentist in Akutan who accepts patients with no dental coverge, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering biannual dental checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children 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 teeth and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to 80 percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps bolster your children’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 fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Akutan.

Many individuals would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any grocery store, you see countless 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 teeth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Akutan, AK that works with patients with no dental insurance, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Akutan 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 choose whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe bleaching solution. You will wear these for a few hours each day for approximately two weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to request a visit online with a Akutan dentist that takes patients with no dental insurance, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been over six months since you last saw a dentist, you probably should schedule an appointment as soon as possible. When you go in for consistent checkups, your dentist can closely examine your teeth to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent infections from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures in the future. If you need to schedule an appointment with a dentist in Akutan, AK that accepts patients without dental insurance we can help you find a great practice.

When you visit your dentist for a checkup, they will start with a thorough cleaning. This will remove plaque that is tough to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The dental prophylaxis will leave your teeth feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is over, your Akutan dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your consultation, the dentist will thoroughly look at your oral cavity to identify any potential complications. If they find anything amiss, they can suggest the proper treatment. The Akutan practice we set you up with will offer comprehensive services to address a variety of dental complications. If you visit the dentist regularly they can keep track of the health of your teeth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment with a dentist that works with patients without dental insurance, 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.
