A common reason to seek dental care is discomfort caused by cavities. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus concerns, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For example, a lasting tooth pain could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have a toothache that lingers, you probably need a dental restoration. Doctors Network can help connect you to a dentist in the Valley Head, AL area who takes new patients!


When the dentist examines you, digital x-rays are used to assess the severity of the cavity. From there, a dental restoration is chosen. For kids and adult patients alike, a dental filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to treat major cavities. If possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance. If you have a toothache, use our search page to find Valley Head dentists and request an appointment in seconds.

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Kids require regular checkups and cleanings 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 eruption of the third molars. If you need to schedule an appointment online with a pediatric dentist in Valley Head, AL with experience providing pediatric dental care, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin as soon as all twenty baby teeth erupt, and should be scheduled twice a year. These visits enable your Valley Head pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as tooth decay, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, kids can often receive a topical fluoride gel to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth decay. Dental sealants, which coat the occlusal surfaces of the posterior teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, this layer of acrylic can protect the teeth as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for dentists in Valley Head who can offer care for kids, let us know. We want to help you find a dentist in your area. With routine care kids not only enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also learn the importance of regular care. These visits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy smiles. All of it starts with that first consultation. So, use our search tool to find the right dentist for you and your family!

We have reached the season when kids and adults alike will be enjoying sports and outdoor activities. While we hope everyone enjoys their activities, we know that they could sustain dental trauma. Sometimes, especially with full contact sports, teeth could be damaged, and when dental trauma occurs, care is needed. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of aching teeth. Doctors Network can help you book an appointment with a dentist that is open on Sundays in Valley Head, AL who can assess the situation.


The outer layer of the tooth protects the dentition. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the risk of dental infection. But when a tooth is chipped, it could increase the risk of tooth decay. You need treatment before your tooth is compromised. Likewise, you can always let us know if you need a Valley Head emergency dentist who accepts private patients for less severe emergencies. Unexplained discomfort and objects caught between the teeth could threaten your smile. Don’t forget that loose teeth could lead to serious problems as well. You also need care if a crown or filling is compromised!


Once you contact Doctors Network and begin searching for your Valley Head, AL dentist, you should take action by taking a store bought pain medication. A piece of cloth can be helpful also. A cold compress can ease facial swelling too. If a tooth is damaged or knocked loose, recover the tooth or any pieces and bring them with you. They can be placed in a glass of milk or salt water.

When spring arrives, people start going out more and enjoying the beautiful weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek to brighten their teeth. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to improve imperfections. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding and gaps can be fixed with Invisalign®. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of a stunning smile. We want to help you find great Valley Head dentists who take on patients who have no dental insurance and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


The first step toward a new smile is a cosmetic consultation with your dentist in Valley Head, AL. The doctor will carefully identify the factors behind your cosmetic issues. Using intraoral camera technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent and cause of your concerns to find a personalized treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could remove discolorations. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring employs dental lasers to reshape the gum line and manage gum disease. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with major misalignment, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you do not currently have a dentist in the Valley Head, AL area, we can connect you with one! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with no dental insurance. We want to help you obtain a smile that looks amazing!

According to the research by the CDC, over half of the population older than 30 suffer from gum disease. Without intervention, this condition could lead to painful symptoms, including red and bleeding gums. The advanced stage, known as periodontitis, could also cause adult tooth loss. This is why care from a Valley Head dental specialist is necessary when you begin to notice red, sore, and bleeding gums. We can help by connecting you to one that accepts private patients. After all, we all benefit from routine dental care!


How does the poor gum health come about? The changes to your gum tissue could occur due to lack of proper brushing and flossing. Others could develop it due to severe plaque and tartar buildup, or due to inflammatory illness, certain medications, tobacco use, or even other family members with poor gum health. As we touched on above, warning signs include red, sore, and bleeding gums. By seeing a dentist in Valley Head, AL you can receive gum treatments like scaling and root planing to bring relief and improve your oral health. These treatment options could be at least partially covered by insurance plans.


If you notice these signs, or if you simply haven’t been to a dentist in the last six months, you should schedule a visit. At Doctors Network, we can connect you to dentists in Valley Head who accept private patients. Strong periodontal health is always an option, and we can help facilitate this process!

It is paramount for children to visit the dentist twice a year for dental visits 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 dentist in Valley Head who takes private patients, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kid 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 shield between their molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of cavities by up to eighty percent. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps fortify your children’s enamel layer. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to dental caries. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Valley Head.

Doctors Network helps keep that reputation strong by providing Alabamians with highly affordable direct dental plans. By signing up with a direct plan at your primary dentist’s office, you can enjoy significant savings on all aspects of your dental health care, even if you already have existing dental insurance coverage.

Over 16% of Alabama residents are over the age of 65, while almost 23% are under the age of 18. For both age groups, personalized dental care is especially important. Older patients often require restoration or prosthodontic care to replace lost teeth; younger patients may need additional ongoing preventive measures, such as orthodontics, to avoid more serious issues later in life. On top of routine general dental care, treatment for seniors and children can cause the costs of your family’s dental care to skyrocket. Fortunately, Doctors Network offers families throughout Alabama a highly affordable alternative to managing dental care costs with a direct dental plan.

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.
