When winter ends, people go out more to enjoy the beautiful weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek to undergo cosmetic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to fight teeth stains. Teeth stains can be removed, and even misalignment can be corrected. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of better oral health. We want to help you book an online appointment with Columbine Valley cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have no dental insurance and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


Correcting your smile starts with a cosmetic consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Columbine Valley, CO. The doctor will carefully identify the factors behind your cosmetic issues. Using digital technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent and cause of your concerns to come up with a personalized treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could brighten smiles by several shades. Dental bonding and contouring can repair teeth and mask imperfections in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and correct gummy smiles. Porcelain veneers are custom porcelain restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with uneven teeth, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you don’t have a cosmetic dentist in the Columbine Valley, CO area, we can help! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with no dental insurance. We want to help you obtain a smile that looks amazing!

Did you ever notice popping or cracking when you open your mouth? Do you have frequent headaches or jaw pain? If so, this could be related to two common jaw joint issues. Around 25 million people in the United States suffer from TMD and teeth grinding. Without treatment, these could not only lead to painful symptoms, but actually crack or chip a tooth! Fortunately, your friends at Doctors Network can connect you to a dental office in Columbine Valley, CO who accepts self-pay patients.


While very different from one another, we often find these are related. TMJ disorder develops when the the temporomandibular joints become strained. This could cause problems when you eat or speak. Common symptoms include pain in the jaw, head, and neck. Bruxism means you clench or grind your teeth in your sleep. The pressure could cause jaw pain. Teeth grinding could also weaken and damage the tooth structure. This damage could lead to decay, infection, and more. Both disorders could be caused by issues that upset bite balance, and untreated TMJ disorder could lead to bruxism, and vice-versa. When you have chronic pain in your head and neck, you should find help. We can even connect you with a dentist in Columbine Valley who accepts self-pay patients.


Treatment options often vary; for some, relief is possible following recontouring, which improves bite balance. For others, treating malocclusion with aligners or braces could ease strain and stop symptoms. The most common option offered by most dentists is an oral appliance, which fits like a night-guard. If you need to find treatment from a Columbine Valley dentist. then contact our team!

It is imperative for your little ones to visit the dentist on a semiannual basis for checkups and cleanings. By teaching kids how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a pediatric dental office in Columbine Valley who takes new patients, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with dental sealants. These are small pieces of BPA-free acrylic that dentists paint onto their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a shield between their back molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of cavities by up to 80%. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps strengthen your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Columbine Valley.

Many people would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any grocery store, you see numerous products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide lackluster results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Columbine Valley, CO that works with patients with no dental coverage, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Columbine Valley dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment. With the in-office option, you will typically be out within about an hour, and you will have noticeably whiter teeth. When you come in, your dentist will apply a bleaching gel to your front teeth that is then activated with a specialized light that removes discoloration.

If you would prefer to get an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe bleaching solution. You will put these on for a couple of hours each day for approximately 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to book a visit online with a Columbine Valley dentist that takes patients with no dental coverage, we can help you find a fantastic one.

If it has been at least half a year since you last went to a dentist, you probably should schedule an appointment as soon as possible. When you go in for regular dental checkups, your dentist can closely examine your mouth to make sure nothing is wrong. This helps prevent dental caries from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more expensive procedures in the future. If you need to schedule an online appointment with a dentist in Columbine Valley, CO that takes self-pay patients we can help you find a great match.

When you go in for an exam, your dentist will begin with a professional cleaning. This will remove plaque that is difficult to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The cleaning will leave your mouth feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is over, your Columbine Valley dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential issues. If they find anything amiss, they can provide treatment options. The Columbine Valley dental office we set you up with will offer a wide range of services to address a variety of dental needs. If you visit the dentist regularly they can monitor the health of your smile. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a visit with a dentist that accepts self-pay patients, we can help you find a great one.

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.
