As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease could be responsible as well. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means problems. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems speaking clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your youthful features. You need a skilled MetLife dentist in Westwood, CA who can replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to an awesome dentist in your location who accepts your insurance. After that, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to diagnose the conditions for your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be placed, restoring smile function. For multiple gaps, partials could offer a solution and restore bite function. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with titanium implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and preserve bone density in your mandible and maxilla and facial structure following losing a tooth.


If you live in the Westwood area and have lost your natural teeth, let us help. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered edentulism, and even if years have elapsed since that happened!


P. S. Please applaud 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, most of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to an older appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts placed into your jaw. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures 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 replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you are wondering how much a dental implant costs in Westwood, you are not alone, but first, you should find a Westwood 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 takes MetLife. You can even sign up for a Doctors Network membership plan to reduce the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will assess the state of your smile. Underlying issues such as periodontitis may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new teeth that look and function like natural dentition!

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 mass and density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause patients to look older. 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 book an online appointment with a great Westwood dentist who is in-network with MetLife and performs jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your mandible. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials could be employed as well. We could also recommend synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, biocompatible 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 in Westwood, CA who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits in 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 serious complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium and phosphate to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance 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 Westwood, CA who can shore up your jaw.


As discussed in previous posts, a bone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of a grafting procedure, your Westwood dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate 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 keep your jaw secure. Your new teeth can then stay in place for years, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Westwood, CA dentist who can offer a sinus lift and takes MetLife. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a whole 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 financing option. With a monthly 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 with clear speech. Your jaw loses mass and density following tooth loss, which could lead to further tooth loss. In some cases, a prematurely aged appearance 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 Westwood prosthodontist who offers All-On-4s.


Traditional fixed dentures need between six and eight implants per arch. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw has lost mass and density this could still support a full set of dental restorations. No need to undergo jawbone grafting or sinus lifts beforehand! These can also often be placed with a denture connected to them on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best MetLife dentists in Westwood who can offer these lifelike prosthetics. You can even book an online dentist appointment.


If you are wondering how much dental implants cost, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. Our simple membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on major and minor treatments. This helps our Westwood patients find affordable dental care, and obtain healthier smiles.

Do you have a missing tooth? Or, have you lost several or possibly all of them? If so, this could mean major oral health complications. Over time, you may suffer major oral health and function complications. 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 nearby Westwood, and we can help you find dentists that accept MetLife!


What happens when you lose your teeth? Well, the surrounding teeth could shift, leading to crooked or crowded teeth. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like jaw joint strain and chronic teeth grinding. You could have difficulty consuming solid foods, and speaking clearly could be challenging too. But the most severe 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 Westwood dentists or prosthodontists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with MetLife.


Fixed partial dentures could address a single gap in the smile. All on four dental implants could treat more severe cases with full and partial options. For the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Westwood dentists that perform teeth implants. Don’t let your smile continue to degrade, and talk to our team about finding a dentist or prosthodontist!

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.
