As children, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease could be responsible as well. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems articulating could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need an excellent Healthplex dentist in Durango, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. Then, your new dentist can examine your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be secured with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Durango‘s proximity and need a solution for tooth loss, let us know. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

Nothing feels better than an attractive smile, but as we age, many of us struggle with missing teeth. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to an older appearance. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. 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 several decades with proper care.


Are you ready to replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost near you in Durango, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Durango dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. 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 accepts 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 carefully examine your smile. Underlying issues like gum disease may need to be treated before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even clear speech could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of structure 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 help you find a good Durango oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with Healthplex and performs ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your mandible. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be sourced from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials could be employed as well. We could also recommend synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible.


Once the area heals, one or more 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 Durango, CO who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can speak. But the most severe complication is the break down of structure in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium and phosphate to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an older appearance and weakens the structure significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Durango, CO 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 upper jaw? Instead of a grafting procedure, your Durango dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to generate new support structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth can then last for decades to come, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Durango, CO dental professional who can offer a sinus lift and takes Healthplex. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With our Direct Dental Plan, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

Have you lost the majority of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean complications with bite functions, from trouble chewing a variety of foods, to difficulties talking. Your jaw loses density and mass following tooth loss, which could lead to further tooth loss. In some cases, a prematurely aged appearance could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your youthful features. But what if your jaw is too weak for multiple dental implants? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Durango dental professional who specializes in performing All-On-4s.


Most fixed dentures need between six and eight dental implants per jaw. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw is too weak for a traditional system this could still support a full set of tooth replacement. No need to undergo ridge augmentation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a denture connected to them on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best Healthplex dentists in Durango who can offer these lifelike prosthetics. You can even schedule a dental visit.


If you questions about the cost, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on the cost of cosmetic dentistry. This helps our Durango patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

Do you have any tooth missing? Or, have you suffered having multiple missing teeth in your smile? If so, this could mean major oral health complications. Over time, you may develop negative impacts on the health and beauty of your smile. In fact, you could even lose many youthful features! To replace your missing teeth, you need help from a good dentist near Durango, and we can connect you to dental professionals that accept Healthplex!


What happens when gaps appear in your smile? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your tempromandibular joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMJ disorder or bruxism. You could have difficulty eating your favorite foods, and speaking clearly could become challenging too. But the most serious complication is the break down of the jawbone structure. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Durango dentists or prosthodontists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as implants and fixed partial dentures or bridges, and select treatment options that could be covered with Healthplex.


Dental bridges could address minor tooth loss. Dentures could provide solutions for more severe cases. For the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Durango dentists that perform teeth implants. Do not let missing teeth complicate your daily life, and talk to our team about finding a prosthodontist!

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.
