My experience at Schambeau Dental Care in Bessemer was nothing short of wonderful! Dr. Schambeau and her staff were personable and overall incredible. I love that they didn’t try to push unnecessary procedures on me. They displayed a high level of integrity, talked me through every procedure, and thoroughly explained everything I needed to know.

Periodontitis is very widespread. In fact, studies from the Centers for Disease Control reveal half of adults over 30 suffer from the disease. Without treatment, gum disease could cause uncomfortable symptoms. Known as periodontitis, this is actually one of the most common causes of adult tooth loss. All that to say, when you develop changes in your gums, you should seek help as soon as you can. Inflamed and receding gums, especially with bleeding, are common indicators that you need to see a Forestdale dental office.


Doctors Network can facilitate finding affordable dental offices in Forestdale AL that accept new patients and can offer a diagnosis after examining your smile. If there is any sign of periodontal concerns, then a treatment plan can be created. For the early stages, a deep cleaning followed by traditional cleanings every 3 to 4 months could safeguard the smile. For the more advanced stage, there are options like laser dentistry, gum grafts, and more to protect your smile!

Adults are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Children need routine 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 arrival of wisdom teeth. If you need to find a family dentist in Forestdale, AL with experience providing pediatric dental care, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin when all baby teeth come in, and continue every six months. These visits enable your Forestdale pediatric dentist to keep track of your child’s dental development, and if areas of concern develop, such as tooth decay, or gingivitis, then treatment might be required. In addition, children can often receive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth decay. Sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, this layer of acrylic can provide protection against tooth cavities for as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for dentists in Forestdale who can treat your entire family, contact us. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care children not only can enjoy healthy smiles, but they also learn the importance of regular care. Good oral health habits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the best practice for you!

When winter ends, people start going out more and enjoying the beautiful weather, and of course, we want our smiles to shine when we socialize, which is why many people seek to undergo cosmetic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed purely to correct common esthetic issues. Teeth stains can be removed, and even misalignment can be corrected. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of a stunning smile. We want to help you find great Forestdale dentists who take on patients who have no dental insurance and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve a perfect smile.


The first step toward a new smile is a consultation with your dentist in Forestdale, AL. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using intraoral camera technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause and extent of your cosmetic concerns to come up with a personalized treatment plan. 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, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you don’t have a dentist in the Forestdale, AL area, we can find a dental care provider for you! 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 makes you feel great!

According to the research by the Centers for Disease Control, over half of adults ages 30 and older suffer from gingival disease. Without treatment, this disease could lead to painful symptoms, including red and bleeding gums. The advanced stage, also known as periodontitis, could also cause missing teeth. This is why care from a Forestdale periodontist is necessary when you begin to notice 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 gum disease start? The changes to your gum tissue could occur due to poor oral hygiene habits. Some could develop it due to lack of dental cleaning visits, or due to inflammatory illness, certain medications, tobacco use, or even other family members with poor gum health. As discussed above, tell-tell signs include sore and bleeding gums. By seeing a dentist in Forestdale, AL you can receive gum treatments like deep cleaning to bring relief and improve your oral health. These options could be at least partially covered by insurance plans.


If you feel concerned, or if you simply have not been to a dentist since the pandemic started, you should schedule a visit. At Doctors Network, we can find the right dentists in Forestdale who accept private patients. Good oral health is always possible, and we can help facilitate this process!

It is imperative for children to visit a dental professional every six months for exams and cleanings. By teaching kids great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a dentist in Forestdale 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. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a barrier between their back molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80 percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your child’s teeth. 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 cavities. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Forestdale.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you stroll down the aisles of any grocery store, you see countless products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried 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 Forestdale, AL that accepts parivate patients, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Forestdale dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home treatment option. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. For this option, your dentist will apply a gel solution to your teeth that they will then activate with a special light, to remove stains.

If you would prefer to get an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill up with a safe whitening solution. You will put these on for a couple of hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to request a consultation online with a Forestdale dentist that takes parivate patients, we can help you find a fantastic one.

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.
