As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth over time. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties with nutritional intake. Problems articulating are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk impacting your smile, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled private dentist in Gardendale, AL who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will connect you to a skilled dentist in your area. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your tooth loss. For mild 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 restore bite function. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Gardendale area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving a dental prosthetic. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

There is no substitute for an attractive smile, but as we age, most of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like full and partial dentures are locked into 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.


Are you ready to tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost near you in Gardendale, you are not alone, but firstly, you need to find a Gardendale 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 tooth loss, but also takes walk-in patients. 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 like gum disease 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!

Major problems arise when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with eating a variety of meals. Even talking 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 an older appearance. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you find a good Gardendale dentist who is in-network with Doctors Network Dental Plan and provides ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership program to make dental care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost 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 such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles may be recommended too. Others recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible bone.


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, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Gardendale, AL 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 several problems for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without tooth roots, 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 lost teeth. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Gardendale, AL who can make smiles ready for implants.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper arch? Instead of grafting, your Gardendale dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to induce the formation of new tissues. The new structure can support one or more implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, 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 Gardendale, AL oral surgeon who can offer a sinus lift and takes patients without dental insurance. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a full smile again. If you don’t have dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With a monthly fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

Have you lost most of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean complications with bite functions, from trouble masticating a variety of foods, to difficulties with clear speech. Your jaw loses density and mass following tooth loss, which could lead to worsening dental health. In some cases, a breakdown in the facial structures could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your facial structures. But what if your jaw is too weak for multiple dental implants? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Gardendale dentist who provides unique implant dentures.


Most implant-supported dentures need between 6 and 8 posts per jaw. But with All-on-4, only four small posts are necessary. Even if your jaw has lost mass and density this could still support a full set of teeth. No need to undergo ridge augmentation beforehand! These can also often be placed with a full set of dentures attached on the same visit. In fact, dentists often refer to them as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best cosmetic dentists in Gardendale who can provide you with a new smile. You can even book an online dentist appointment.


If you have concerns regarding the cost of dental implants, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. Our membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on your tooth replacement costs. This helps our Gardendale patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

Do you have a missing tooth? Or, have you lost several of them? If so, this could mean impacts beyond the smile esthetics. Over time, the function and health of your smile suffers. In fact, you could even lose many youthful features! To prevent these complications, you need help from a good dental practice near Gardendale, and we can connect you to dental professionals that accept most dental insurances!


What happens when you lose your teeth? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your tempromandibular joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMD or persistent teeth grinding or clenching. You could have difficulty enjoying a variety of meal options, and speaking clearly could become complicated too. But the most serious complication is the break down of the jawbone structure. This means the stability of your smile is compromised. In addition, facial structure changes could make you appear older! But help is available, as Gardendale dental professionals could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with most dental insurances.


Fixed partial dentures could address minor tooth loss. All on four dental implants could replace the majority or all of your natural teeth. For the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Gardendale dentists who perform dental implants. Don’t let missing teeth complicate your daily life, and talk to our team about finding a prosthodontist!

Over 16% of Alabama residents are over the age of 65, while almost 23% are under the age of 18. For both age groups, personalized dental care is especially important. Older patients often require restoration or prosthodontic care to replace lost teeth; younger patients may need additional ongoing preventive measures, such as orthodontics, to avoid more serious issues later in life. On top of routine general dental care, treatment for seniors and children can cause the costs of your family’s dental care to skyrocket. Fortunately, Doctors Network offers families throughout Alabama a highly affordable alternative to managing dental care costs with a direct dental plan.

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.
