Perhaps, the most common reason to look for a dentist is a toothache. While sudden discomfort could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus concerns or changes in elevation, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For example, a lingering toothache could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you probably need a dentist. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Pitkas Point, AK community who takes private patients!


When the dental professional examines your teeth, advanced technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. then, a dental restoration is chosen.

Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Kids need regular 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, wisdom tooth eruption. If you need to book an appointment with a family dentist in Pitkas Point, AK with experience providing pediatric dental care, then Doctors Network is able to help you.


Routine examinations should begin when all baby teeth come in, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Pitkas Point pediatric dentist to watch the smile over time, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then treatment can be administered. In addition, children can often receive preventive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth caries. Sealants, which coat the occlusal surfaces of the posterior teeth, 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 family dentists in Pitkas Point who can offer care for kids, let us know. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care children not only can enjoy healthy smiles, but they also understand the importance of good oral hygiene. These visits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that first checkup and cleaning. So, use our search tool to find the best dentist for you and your family!

We’ve reached the season when kids and adults alike will be playing sports. While we hope everyone enjoys their activities, we know that their teeth could be at risk. In some situations, especially with full contact sports, teeth could be damaged, and when trauma occurs, care is needed. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of tooth decay. Doctors Network can help you book an appointment with a dentist that is open on Sundays in Pitkas Point, AK who can assess the situation.


The outside of each tooth provides protection against tooth decay. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the onset of tooth decay. But when a tooth is fractured, it could increase the risk of tooth decay. You need treatment to safeguard your smile. Likewise, you can always let us know if you need a Pitkas Point dentist who accepts private patients for more minor complaints. Unexplained discomfort and objects caught between the teeth could compromise your smile. Don’t forget that knocked out teeth could lead to weakened smiles as well. You also need care if a tooth filling or crown falls out!


Once you contact Doctors Network and begin the search for your Pitkas Point, AK dentist, take steps to avoid complications by taking over-the-counter medications to ease discomfort. A piece of cloth or a tea bag can stem bleeding. Applying an ice pack can ease facial swelling too. If a tooth is damaged or knocked loose, recover the tooth or any pieces and bring them with you to the dentist. They can be placed in a glass of milk or salt water.

When the season changes, people start going out and enjoying the 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 even misalignment can be corrected. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of a stunning smile. We want to help connect you to Pitkas Point dentists who take on patients who have no insurance and can offer the range of treatment needed to transform your teeth.


The first step toward a new smile is a consultation with your dentist in Pitkas Point, AK. 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 of your esthetic concerns in order to come up with a tailored treatment for your smile. For stains, professional teeth whitening could brighten smiles by several shades. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring employs dental lasers to reshape the gum line and correct gummy smiles. Porcelain veneers are custom porcelain restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with malocclusion, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you don’t have a dentist in the Pitkas Point, AK 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 insurance. We want to help you obtain a smile that makes you feel great!

When a tooth becomes abscessed, treatment is required. Without care, the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth might require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into other parts of the smile. Often, a better treatment for an infected tooth is a root canal. The procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again and requires additional care. You may need to book an emergency dental visit with one of our knowledgeable Pitkas Point dentists for further treatments.


A root canal involves removing the tissues from inside of the tooth. The interiors and root canals are thoroughly cleaned, and a restorative material known as gutta-percha is then administered. In many cases, the tooth is then capped with a tooth crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also blend with the smile. But if there are complications with the procedure, the health of the tooth could be unpredictable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience this type of discomfort, do not risk tooth loss. Doctors Network can help you find a dental office in Pitkas Point, AK that can offer additional treatment and accepts private patients.


If you don’t have an insurance plan don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a direct dental plan to make dental care budget-friendly. With a monthly membership fee, you can undergo necessary root canal retreatment at a reasonable cost!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. Even speaking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged appearance. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a great Pitkas Point oral surgeon who is in-network with discount dental plans and offers this care. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make dental 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. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles may be recommended too. Some opt for synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible.


Once the area heals, the dental implants could be placed. The body will accept them as natural roots. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Pitkas Point, AK who performs jawbone grafting, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your treatment 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.
