Dr. Greg Hawkins knew that dentistry was his calling after his own dentist helped him deal with a bad oral health situation as a child. He realized that he wanted to do the same for others and started on the track to becoming a dentist. Dr. Hawkins attended Holly Pond High School, then went on to Auburn University where he completed his undergraduate studies by 1983. He graduated from the University of Alabama School of Dentistry in 1988. Since then, he has been a practicing dentist, working closely with his patients to treat their conditions and provide them with long-lasting solutions.

When winter ends, people go out more to enjoy the beautiful weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek to undergo cosmetic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to fight teeth stains. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding can be treated with orthodontics. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of better oral health. We want to help you find great Gurley dentists who take on patients who have Cigna and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve a perfect smile.


You can start cosmetic treatments with a consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Gurley, 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 cause and extent of your concerns to come up with a personalized treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could correct discolored teeth. Dental bonding and contouring can repair teeth and mask imperfections in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and manage gum disease. Porcelain veneers are cosmetic restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with major misalignment, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you do not have a cosmetic dentist in the Gurley, AL area, we can help! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Cigna. We want to help you obtain a smile that looks amazing!

It is paramount for your little ones to visit the dentist on a biannual basis for checkups and cleanings. By teaching children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a dental office in Gurley who takes Cigna, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children 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 shield between their permanent teeth and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80%. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps bolster your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective 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 prevents this from happening. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Gurley.

Many people would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any grocery store, you see numerous products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional tooth bleaching can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Gurley, AL that takes Cigna, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Gurley dentist, 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 come in, your dentist will apply a bleaching gel to your front teeth that is then activated with a specialized light that removes discoloration.

If you would prefer to get an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe whitening solution. You will put these on for a few hours each day for roughly 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to request a visit online with a Gurley dentist that takes Cigna, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been at least half a year since you last went to a dentist, you probably should schedule an appointment soon. When you go in for consistent dental checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your smile to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent carious lesions from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures in the future. If you need to schedule an appointment with a dentist in Gurley, AL that takes Cigna we can help you find a great match.

When you go in for an exam, your dentist will begin with a professional cleaning. This will remove built-up that is difficult to remove at home — even with terrific brushing and flossing habits. The cleaning will leave your smile feeling fresh and rejuvenated.

Once your cleaning is done, your Gurley dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential complications. If they find anything amiss, they can provide treatment options. The Gurley dental practice we set you up with will offer a wide range of services to address a variety of dental needs. If you attend regularly scheduled checkups they can monitor the health of your mouth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment online with a dentist that accepts Cigna, we can help you find a great one.

With a population of nearly five million, Alabama is one of the most historically relevant of the United States. For instance, the first rocket to put humans on the moon was built by Alabamians. The state is also one of the most health-conscious, and is known for a generally reasonable cost of living and its affordable health care programs. 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.
