As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis is the number one cause. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need a skilled Medicaid dentist in Dorris, CA who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will help connect you to a dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be placed, providing lifelike results. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most fulls and partials are removable, they could be stablized with tooth implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jaw and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Dorris‘s proximity and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. A full smile is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


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

When you have a toothache, or a tooth that is broken or cracked, you need treatment. Otherwise, the tooth could develop a decay and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only missing teeth, but a spread of infection to other teeth. But sometimes, the cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a restoration. Instead, the tooth could require an extraction. At Doctors Network, our team can help you find a Medicaid dentist in Dorris, CA who can provide a safe tooth removal as needed.


As we discussed earlier, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontitis. Removing a tooth could return balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for correcting misalignment! In many cases, this could prevent the negative impact of wisdom tooth eruption. Removing wisdom teeth prior to eruption helps preserve the balance and overall esthetics. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for a full prosthetic. Your Dorris general dentist could use the extraction to improve the function and health of your smile.


Now that you understand when a tooth may require removal, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can find a great dental practice in the Dorris, CA area. But if you don’t have a dental plan, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a financing option! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a monthly fee. For some, this could reduce the cost of care by up to ninety percent!

You probably have lots of friends who have had their wisdom teeth extracted and are eager to describe their story to you. While this can be helpful, it is still necessary to consult with a dentist or an oral surgeon. If you need your wisdom teeth removed, it is important to have lots of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from wisdom teeth removal and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great oral surgeon near you in Dorris, CA that accepts Medicaid.


Wisdom teeth are in the back of the mouth, and there are two on the top and two on the bottom. They most commonly appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because they are the last teeth to erupt, their appearance can cause problems with your existing ones. They can erupt at unusual angles, only partially erupt, or overcrowd your current teeth. When this occurs, they are likely to succumb to abscess and infections. If any of these conditions take place, it can be very painful and can damage your dentition. If you think you might have impediments with wisdom teeth coming in, it is important to see a Dorris oral surgery specialist hastily.


If you do need wisdom tooth removal, your oral healthcare professional will determine how they will go about the procedure to make sure everything goes according to the plan. They will determine how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also determine the appropriate type of sedation and the position of your existing teeth and nerve. Once they ascertain this information, they can extract your wisdom teeth more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate anesthesia option, so you will not feel pain. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are doing well. Once your wisdom teeth are removed, you will be provided with information about the recovery period. Fortunately, there are many Dorris dentists that accept Medicaid and can effectively pull your wisdom teeth.

It is essential for your little ones to visit the dentist on a biannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dentist in Dorris who accepts Medicaid, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little children with dental 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 adult teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to 80 percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to dental caries. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Dorris.

Many people would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any grocery store, you see myriad products that tout their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Dorris, CA that works with Medicaid, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Dorris dentist, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office treatment. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. When you visit the office for whitening, your dentist will apply a special bleaching gel that, when activated by a special light, will get rid of stains.

If you would prefer to choose whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe peroxide solution. You will wear these for a few hours each day for about two weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to book an appointment with a Dorris dentist that accepts Medicaid, we can help you find the best ones.

Once your cleaning is completed, your Dorris dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your appointment, the dentist will thoroughly look at your oral cavity to identify any potential issues. If they find anything amiss, they can provide treatment options. The Dorris dental practice we set you up with will offer a myriad of services to address a variety of dental needs. When you visit the dentist consistently they can monitor the health of your teeth.

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.
