As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an amazing in-network dentist in Homer, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will help connect you to a skilled dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can inspect your smile to diagnose the conditions for your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be supported with dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Homer area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

You can’t put a price on an attractive smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional options, such as bridges or removable dentures, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but far much longer with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you are wondering how much a dental implant costs near Homer, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Homer dentist who can offer prosthetic dentistry. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your tooth loss, but also works with patients without dental insurance. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even talking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the break down of density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a local Homer oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Doctors Network Discount Dental Plan and offers ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your mandible. Your dentist could use various sources. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials may be recommended too. We could also recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible dental implants could be placed. The body will allow them to bond with the jaw. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Homer, AK who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental plan to make sure your treatment fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without tooth roots, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address your missing teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Homer, AK who can make smiles ready for implants.


As discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of adding new tissue, your Homer dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate new support structure. The new structure can support one or more implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support new teeth, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Homer, AK oral surgeon who can offer a sinus lift and takes new patients. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a full smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and optimal oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is in your future!

Have you lost all of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean complications with bite functions, from trouble masticating a variety of foods, to difficulties speaking clearly. Your jaw loses bone mass following tooth loss, which could lead to the loss of additional teeth. In some cases, an older appearance could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your facial structures. But what if your jaw is too weak for a set of implant-secured dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Homer dentist who offers All-On-4s.


Traditional dental implant dentures need between six and eight posts per arch. But with All-on-4, just four implants are required. Even if your jaw is too weak for a traditional system this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo bone ridge preservation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a denture connected to them on the same visit. In fact, dentists often refer to them as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best private dentists in Homer who can offer these lifelike prosthetics. You can even schedule a dentist visit.


If you have a limited budget, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. Our membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on prosthetic dentistry. This helps our Homer patients find affordable dental care, and smile with confidence once again.

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.
