When Dr. Bruce Lee treats his patients, he works hard to make them feel at home. He believes that forming strong relationships with his patients is necessary to provide them with a positive dental experience, so he always makes it a point to be warm and welcoming to everyone he has the pleasure of working with.

Dr. Lee loves what he does, and finds joy in making lasting friendships with his patients and providing them with high-quality healthcare. To ensure that his patients only receive the best dental treatments, Dr. Lee attends many continuing education courses. He is also a firm believer in using his dental skills and knowledge to give back to those in need. So, he took part in mission trips to Mexico with the LDS church for two years. He continues to visit Mexico to provide underserved families with free dental services today.

As children, we lose our baby teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. The advanced stage of 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 consuming solid foods. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even smile’s stability. You need an experienced private dentist in Altona, CO who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your missing teeth. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Altona area and have unsightly gaps in your smile, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

Nothing feels better than a full smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to an older appearance. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are securely attached to 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 and attention.


Are you ready to address unsightly gaps with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost in Altona, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Altona dentist who can offer tooth replacement. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your tooth loss, but also takes patients without dental insurance. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to reduce the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will carefully examine your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be treated before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer replacement teeth that look and function like natural teeth!

A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. 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 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 schedule an appointment with a local Altona oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with discount dental plans and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your mandible. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles could be employed as well. Some opt for synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will see them as natural structures. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Altona, CO who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium and phosphate to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure 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 Altona, CO who can shore up your jaw.


As discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation 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 Altona dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to induce the formation of 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 preserve the area. Your new teeth can then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Altona, CO dentist who can address tooth loss and takes patients without dental insurance. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and a complete smile. 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!

Do you have A Loose Tooth? Or, have you suffered having multiple missing teeth in your smile? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, you may develop negative impacts on the function, health, and beauty of your smile. In fact, you could even develop a prematurely aged appearance! To safeguard the health, function, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dentist around Altona, and we can help you find local dental practices that accept dental insurance!


What happens when gaps appear in your smile? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, leading to crooked or crowded teeth. The pressure on your TMJ and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMD or persistent teeth grinding or clenching. You could have difficulty consuming solid foods, and speaking clearly could be difficult too. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means you risk the loss of even more teeth. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Altona dentists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with dental insurance.


Dental bridges could address minor tooth loss. All on four dental implants could treat more severe cases with full and partial options. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Altona dentists who perform dental implants. Don’t let missing teeth complicate your daily life, and talk to our team about finding a dentist or prosthodontist!

It is paramount for kids to visit a pediatric dentist bi-yearly for exams and cleanings. By teaching your kids great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a pediatric dental office in Altona who accepts patients with no dental insurance, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their back molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to eighty percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your child’s teeth. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Altona.

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.
