dental-implants-or-bridge

As children, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties eating. Problems talking could occur. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a new Guardian dentist in Metlakatla, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, providing lifelike results. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your jaw and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Metlakatla area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please celebrate our dental surgeons in Nashville, TN with us this week.

sleep-apnea-treatment

When you suffer from a sleep disorder, you may not think a dentist near you could help. But in fact, Guardian dentists can provide a noninvasive and comfortable option to treat sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition in which when you sleep, the soft tissues in the throat and the back of your mouth collapse and cut off airflow. Patients literally stop breathing briefly until the brain notices a drop in oxygen. Even if you believe you slept well, you could experience daytime drowsiness! But when is it time to contact Doctors Network and find Metlakatla, AK dentists who provide treatment options?


Warning signs could include snoring on a nightly basis. Daytime headaches, drowsiness, and even irritability could occur too. With no treatment, OSA could impact your immune system and heart health. When you experience similar symptoms, consider talking to a dentist. Sometimes, oral appliance therapy can be helpful to keep air passages clear while you sleep, so you can finally rest without sleep apnea symptoms.


This week we are celebrating our dentists in NYC.

tooth-bonding

If you have a chipped tooth or a tooth that is misshapen, then you need cosmetic dentistry. With tooth reshaping and tooth-color fillings in Metlakatla, AK, these cosmetic imperfections can be can be addressed with lifelike results. At Doctors Network, we aim to help connect you with a dentist in Metlakatla, AK who takes Guardian and offers cosmetic dentistry. You may not be aware just how much bonding and contouring can do in one sitting.


Tooth-colored filling repairs aesthetic concerns using a metal-free material. The composite resin, a mixture of glass and acrylic particles, is shaded and applied to the teeth. Metlakatla cosmetic dentists also use the same material to treat tooth decay. During dental contouring, the dentist actually sands and buffs the outer tooth surfaces to correct issues with a tooth’s balance and shape.


This week we are celebrating our Brooklyn dental professionals. Using both procedures, these dentists will be able to reshape malformed teeth, repair dental damage, mask teeth stains, and close gaps between the teeth.

Periodontitis is very widespread. In fact, studies from the CDC reveal that half of adults over the age of thirty require treatment for periodontal concerns. Without treatment, gum disease could reach an advanced stage. Known as periodontal disease, this is actually one of the most common causes of adult tooth loss. All that to say, when you develop discomfort in the gums, you need to see a professional as soon as possible. Inflamed and receding gums, especially with bleeding, are common indicators that you need to see a Metlakatla dental surgeon.


Doctors Network can streamline searching for dental clinics in Metlakatla AK that accept Guardian and can offer a treatment plan after examining your smile. If there is a presence of inflammation, then a treatment can be planned. For less severe cases, a deep cleaning followed by traditional cleanings every three or four months could safeguard the smile.

In childhood, many of us grind our teeth for short periods of time. The issue tends to last only a few months. But for some, bruxism could mean chronic teeth grinding into and throughout adulthood, and the pressure from clenching your teeth could lead to major complications. Cracks, chips, and worn-down structures could cause discomfort. You are also more likely to develop cavities or even infected teeth, which is why if you have bruxism, you should consider using Doctors Network’s search tool to book an appointment with a dentist in Metlakatla.


Your partner or spouse may let you know that you have bruxism when you sleep. Otherwise, symptoms could include toothaches and tooth sensitivity. Treatment options vary. Some dentists bring relief by addressing the causes of teeth grinding. They could correct misalignment with orthodontics, or even replace missing teeth with prosthetics. Many offer treatment with custom and comfortable oral splints. So don’t ignore the possible warning signs, talk to us about finding the right dentist in your area who accepts Guardian.

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we get older, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts inserted into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are locked into these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but possibly a lifetime with proper care.


Are you ready to tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs near Metlakatla, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Metlakatla dentist who can offer implant dentistry. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also takes Guardian. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying oral health concerns may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer quality prosthetics that look and function like natural dentition!

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.
