As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontitis leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties eating. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced MetLife dentist in Petaluma Center, CA who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to an experienced dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be stablized with titanium implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Petaluma Center area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have gone by since that happened!


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

You can’t put a price on an attractive smile, but as we get older, many of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. 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 dental implants. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, these are connected to posts inserted into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures are locked into 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 tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost in Petaluma Center, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Petaluma Center dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. 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 accepts MetLife. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network membership plan to reduce the cost of your treatment.


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

Oral health declines 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 patients to look older. More importantly, this prevents dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a great Petaluma Center oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with MetLife and provides this care. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make dental care affordable!


Jawbone grafting 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 taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials like bovine bone may be recommended too. Some opt for synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandibular bone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible 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, preserving your smile. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Petaluma Center, CA who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your meal options, or how clearly you can speak. But the most severe complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body reduces the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the jaw 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 Petaluma Center, CA who can strengthen your smile.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper arch? Instead of grafting, your Petaluma Center 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 preserve the area. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Petaluma Center, CA dentist who can address tooth loss and takes MetLife. 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 good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is in your future!

Have you lost all 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 bone mass following tooth loss, which could lead to the loss of additional teeth. 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 youthful features. But what if your jaw is too weak for traditional implant dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Petaluma Center prosthodontist who provides unique implant dentures.


Traditional implant dentures need between 6 and 8 implant fixtures per jaw. But with All-on-4, only four small posts are necessary. Even if your jaw has begun to break down this could still support a full set of tooth replacement. No need to undergo jawbone grafting or sinus lifts 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 MetLife dentists in Petaluma Center who can restore your new smile. You can even schedule a dentist appointment.


If you have concerns regarding the cost of dental implants, then consider getting 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 your tooth replacement costs. This helps our Petaluma Center patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

Do you have A Loose Tooth? 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 develop major changes to your facial structures! To safeguard the function, health, and beauty of your smile, you need help from a good dental practice around Petaluma Center, and we can help you find dentists that accept MetLife!


What happens when gaps appear in your smile? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, causing dental misalignment. The pressure on your jaw 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 complicated too. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means the stability of your smile is compromised. In addition, facial structure changes could make you appear older! But help is available, as Petaluma Center dentists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as implants and fixed partial dentures or bridges, and select treatment options that could be covered with MetLife.


Dental bridges could address a single gap in the smile. Dentures could treat more severe cases with full and partial options. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Petaluma Center dentists that perform tooth implant. Don’t let missing teeth complicate your daily life, and talk to our team about finding an implantologist!

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.
