Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. Even talking 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 patients to look older. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a great Somis oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Cigna and performs ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make dental care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials could also be used. Others recommend synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will accept them as natural roots. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Somis, CA who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your care fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of calcium and phosphate 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 Somis, CA who can make smiles ready for implants.


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 adding new tissue, your Somis dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new bone structure. The new structure can support dental implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Somis, CA oral surgeon who can offer a sinus lift and takes Cigna. 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 fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile can happen!

It is essential for kids to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dental office in Somis who accepts Cigna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kid with dental sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their molars and harmful bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to 80%. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


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

Many folks would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see myriad products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Somis, CA that works with Cigna, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Somis dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment. If you choose the in-office treatment, you will have brighter teeth within about an hour. 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 from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill up with a safe peroxide or bleaching solution. You will put these on for a few hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a whiter smile. If you would like to book a consultation with a Somis dentist that takes Cigna, we can help you find a fantastic one.

During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your teeth to identify any potential issues. In case anything is out of the ordinary, they can suggest the proper treatment.

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.
