As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. The advanced stage of gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems eating. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a permanent Healthplex dentist in Lake Minchumina, AK who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can examine your smile to understand the factors behind your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Lake Minchumina area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. 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 celebrate our dental professionals in Nashville, TN with us this week.

When you have chronic snoring, you may not realize it, but a dentist could help. But in fact, Healthplex dentists can provide a noninvasive and comfortable solution to help you breathe without interruption. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition in which as you sleep, the soft tissues in the throat and the back of your mouth collapse and cut off airflow. Patients with OSA actually stop breathing briefly until the brain wakes them. Even as you assume you slept well, you could feel tired! But when is it time to talk to Doctors Network and find Lake Minchumina, AK dentists who offer OSA treatment?


Sings of sleep apnea could include chronic snoring. Daytime drowsiness, headaches, and moodiness could occur too. With no intervention, the condition could even impact your immune system and heart health. When you suffer similar signs, consider talking to a dentist. Sometimes, oral appliance therapy can be helpful to keep air passages clear while you sleep, so you can finally sleep well.


This week we are honoring our dental practices in New York.

tooth-bonding

If you have a fractured tooth or one that is stained, then you could benefit from a cosmetic treatment. With enameloplasty and tooth-color fillings in Lake Minchumina, AK, these and other cosmetic imperfections can be treated in one visit. At Doctors Network, we aim to help connect you with a restorative dentist in Lake Minchumina, AK who takes Healthplex and offers cosmetic dentistry. You may not believe just how much these two treatments can correct in only one sitting.


Dental restoration repairs aesthetic concerns with composite resin materials. The material, a blend of glass and acrylic particles, is shaded and placed in the tooth preparation. Lake Minchumina dentists also use this material to repair dental caries. During contouring, the dentist sands the outer tooth enamel or restoration to correct your damaged or malformed tooth.


Today we are celebrating our Brooklyn dentists. Utilizing these two procedures, these dentists will be able to reshape malformed teeth, repair dental damage, mask teeth stains, and even close embarrassing spaces between the teeth.

Periodontitis impacts millions of adults. In fact, studies from the CDC reveal about 50% of adults over thirty require treatment for periodontal concerns. Without treatment, gum disease could cause uncomfortable symptoms. Known as periodontal disease, this is actually the most common cause of adult tooth loss. All that to say, when you develop changes in your gums, you should seek help as soon as you can. Sore, red gums that bleed easily, along with receding tissues, are common indicators that you need to see a Lake Minchumina general dentist.


Doctor Network’s search engine can help connect you with affordable dental offices in Lake Minchumina AK that accept Healthplex and can offer a treatment plan after a dental examination. If there is a presence of gingivitis or gum disease, then a treatment can be planned. For less severe cases, a deep cleaning followed by traditional cleanings every 3 to 4 months could safeguard the smile. For severe periodontitis stages, there are options like gum grafts, laser dentistry, and more to protect your gums!

As children, many of us develop teeth grinding for short periods of time. The issue tends to be temporary. But for some, bruxism could mean the issue persists into and throughout adulthood, and the pressure from clenching and grinding your teeth could lead to major complications. Chipped and cracked teeth could cause discomfort. You are also more likely to develop tooth decay or even infected teeth, which is why if you notice changes to your teeth, you should consider using Doctors Network’s search tool to find a dental practice in Lake Minchumina.


Your significant other may let you know you grind your teeth in your sleep. Otherwise, symptoms could include toothaches and tooth sensitivity. Treatment options vary. Some dentists bring relief by addressing the underlying factors. They could correct misalignment with orthodontics, or even replace missing teeth with prosthetics. Many offer treatment with custom and comfortable occlusal night guards. So don’t ignore the possible warning signs, talk to us about finding the right dentist in your area who accepts Healthplex.

You can’t put a price on an attractive smile, but as we get older, many of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat tooth loss, 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 full and partial 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 tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost in Lake Minchumina, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Lake Minchumina dentist who can offer prosthetic dentistry. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dental professional who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also takes Healthplex. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network membership plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will assess the state of your smile. Underlying factors may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer replacement teeth 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.
