There is no substitute for a full smile, but as we get older, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but possibly a lifetime with proper care.


Are you ready to tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs near Anchorage, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Anchorage dentist who can offer tooth replacement. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your tooth loss, but also works with Cigna. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will carefully examine your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural teeth!

One of the most common reasons to look for a dentist is a toothache. While temporary aches could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For instance, a lasting tooth pain could be caused by the presence of a cavity, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have a toothache that lingers, you most likely need a dental restoration. Doctors Network can help connect you to a dentist in the Anchorage, AK area near you who takes Cigna!


When the dentist examines your smile, imaging technology is used to assess the severity of the cavity. From there, the right treatment is chosen. For kids and adults alike, a tooth-filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to address advanced decay. When possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they blend with the smile. If you have a toothache, use our search module to find Anchorage dentists and request an appointment.

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Kids require regular checkups and cleanings as well, and they need to be monitored by a pediatric dentist for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the third molars. If you need to book an online appointment a pediatric dental professional in Anchorage, AK with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin as soon as all twenty baby teeth erupt, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Anchorage pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as tooth decay, or gingivitis, then intervention might be needed. In addition, kids can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth cavities. Dental sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can strengthen vulnerable adult teeth. In fact, sealants can last as long as ten years in some cases.

With routine care kids not only can enjoy healthy and strong smiles, but they also understand 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 initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the right dentist for you and your family!

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.
