I love the staff at Schambeau Dental Care in Bessemer, especially Dr. Schambeau. They addressed my issues and didn’t try to push unnecessary procedures. Though the waiting room can get crowded, they have a TV and magazines to keep you preoccupied. The office is very organized and welcoming. My family and I have now found our new go-to dentist!

As adolescents, we lose our deciduous teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is often due to injury. Gum disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems talking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk damages to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need an amazing MetLife dentist in Vandiver, AL who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help locate one.


First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can examine 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 crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with tooth implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your jawbones and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Vandiver‘s proximity and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. Model-worthy teeth are within reach, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!


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

You can’t put a price on 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 a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to dental implants. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like bridges are locked into 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 tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you want to know how much a dental implant costs in Vandiver, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Vandiver dentist who can offer prosthetic dentistry. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dental professional 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 take a close look at your smile. Underlying oral health concerns may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer new 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 speaking 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 make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you book an online appointment with a great Vandiver oral surgeon who is in-network with MetLife and performs ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make dental care affordable!


Bone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your gums. 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 could be employed as well. Others recommend synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible 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 Vandiver, AL who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our dental 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 talk. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of phosphate and calcium 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 gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Vandiver, 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 Vandiver dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to induce the formation of new tissues. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to prevent further breakdowns. Your new teeth then last for decades to come, 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 Vandiver, AL dentist who can offer a sinus lift and takes MetLife. 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 a complete smile. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental 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 eating a variety of foods, to difficulties with clear speech. Your jaw loses bone density following tooth loss, which could lead to worsening dental health. In some cases, an older 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 Vandiver family dentist who specializes in All-On-4 procedure.


Most implant-supported dentures need between 6 and 8 posts per arch. But with All-on-4, only four small posts are necessary. Even if your jaw is too weak for a traditional system this could still support a full set of dentures. 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, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best MetLife dentists in Vandiver who can provide you with a new smile. You can even request a 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 major and minor treatments. This helps our Vandiver patients find affordable dental care, and obtain healthier smiles.

Do you have Loose teeth? Or, have you lost several of them? If so, this could mean more than just embarrassing gaps in your smile. Over time, the function and health of your smile suffers. In fact, you could even develop major changes to your facial structure! To prevent these complications, you need help from a good dental professional nearby Vandiver, and we can help you find dentists that accept MetLife!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your TMJ and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMD or persistent teeth grinding or clenching. You could have difficulty consuming solid foods, and speaking clearly could be complicated as well. But the most severe complication is the loss of mass and density in the jawbone. This means the stability of your smile is compromised. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Vandiver dental professionals could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges and implants, 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 the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Vandiver dentists that perform dental implants. Don’t let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a cosmetic dentist!

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.
