Perhaps, the most common reason to search for a dentist is discomfort caused by cavities. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for many different reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For example, a lasting toothache could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have a toothache that lingers, you most likely need a filling placed. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Santa Margarita, CA area who takes Delta Dental!


When the dentist examines your smile, advanced technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. From there, the appropriate treatment option is chosen. For kids and adult patients 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 use more lifelike options, so they blend with the smile. If you have an aching tooth, use our search module to connect with Santa Margarita walk-in dentists and book an appointment.

Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from routine dental treatment. Children require regular dental exams as well, and they need to be monitored by a pediatric 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 family dentist in Santa Margarita, CA 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 Santa Margarita pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, kids can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth decay. Dental sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, these protective sealants can last as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for Delta Dental dentists in Santa Margarita 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 can enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also understand the value of caring for their smiles. Checkups and cleanings 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 best dentist for you!

We’ve reached the time of the year when children 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. In some situations, especially with full contact sports, teeth could become compromised, and when dental trauma occurs, you need emergency treatment. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of tooth decay. Doctors Network can help you access an emergency dentist in Santa Margarita, CA who can assess the situation.


The outside of each tooth is coated in enamel. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the onset of tooth decay. But when a tooth is broken, chipped, or cracked, it could alter the appearance of your smile. You need treatment even if the damage appears minor. Likewise, you should let us know if you need a Santa Margarita dentist who accepts Delta Dental for less obvious emergency situations. Sudden toothaches and objects caught between the teeth could threaten your smile. Don’t forget that loose teeth are causes for concern as well. You also need care if a crown or tooth filling is compromised!


After you contact Doctors Network and begin searching for your Santa Margarita, CA dentist, take steps to avoid complications by taking an over-the-counter pain reliever. A piece of cloth or a tea bag can stem bleeding. 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 the season changes, people go out more to enjoy the beautiful weather, and of course, we want our smiles to shine 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 better oral health. We want to help connect you to Santa Margarita dentists who take on patients who have Delta Dental and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


You can start cosmetic treatments with a consultation with your dentist in Santa Margarita, CA. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using intraoral camera technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause of your cosmetic concerns in order to come up with a tailored treatment for your smile. For stains, professional teeth whitening could remove discolorations. Dental bonding and contouring can address dental damage in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and correct gummy smiles. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with uneven teeth, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you do not currently have a dentist in the Santa Margarita, CA area, we can help! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Delta Dental. We want to help you obtain a smile that looks amazing!

When a tooth becomes abscessed, treatment is necessary. Lack of treatment means the tooth could become necrotic. At this stage, the tooth might need to be extracted. Otherwise, the infection moves into the jaw. Often, a better treatment for an infected tooth is an endodontic treatment. The procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again, and retreatment could be needed. You may need to see one of our knowledgeable Santa Margarita dentists for a root canal redo.


A root canal involves removing the tissues from inside of the tooth. The interiors and root canals are cleaned, and a restorative material, AKA gutta percha, is then added to the tooth. In many cases, the tooth is then capped with a porcelain crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also look natural. But if the procedure does not go as expected, the prognosis of the condition could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and discomfort when biting down. If you experience this, don’t risk tooth loss. Doctors Network can connect you with an emergency dental services provider in Santa Margarita, CA that can offer retreatment and accepts Delta Dental.


If you don’t have dental insurance don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a direct dental plan to make care affordable. With a simple monthly rate, you can receive a root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even clear speech could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of structure 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 prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a local Santa Margarita oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Delta Dental and provides this care. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your mandible. Your dentist could use various sources. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials could also be used. Some opt for synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


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

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.
