dental-implants-or-bridge

As children, we lose our primary teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is often due to injury. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing 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 negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need a skilled MetLife dentist in Metlakatla, AK who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help find a local dentist.


First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist near you. Then, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to understand the factors behind your tooth loss. For minor cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, addressing one to three lost teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be crafted and secured. While most fulls and partial dentures are removable, they could be secured with multiple dental implants. Dental implants are secured like natural teeth, and stimulate bone preservation in your jawbones and facial structure following tooth loss.


If you live in the Metlakatla area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, 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.

sleep-apnea-treatment

When you suffer from a sleep disorder, you may not think a dentist could help. In fact, MetLife dentists can provide a non-invasive option to help you breathe without interruption. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) means that when you sleep, the soft tissues in the throat and the back of your mouth collapse and cause you to stop breathing. People actually stop breathing briefly until the brain notices a drop in oxygen. Even if you think you slept well, you could experience daytime drowsiness! But when is it necessary to talk to Doctors Network to find Metlakatla, AK dentists who provide treatment options?


Symptoms of sleep apnea include chronic snoring. Daytime headaches, and even moodiness could be factors too. With no treatment, the condition could affect your immune system and heart health. When you notice similar symptoms, consider talking to a dentist. Sometimes, oral appliance therapy can be helpful to keep airways free of obstruction, so you can finally sleep comfortably.

tooth-bonding

If you have a chipped tooth or a tooth that is misshapen, then you need dental treatment. With tooth reshaping and tooth-color fillings in Metlakatla, AK, these cosmetic imperfections can be treated in one visit. At Doctors Network, we are here to help connect you with a restorative dentist in Metlakatla, AK who takes MetLife and provides the comprehensive treatments you need. You may be surprised to discover just how much tooth-colored bondings can do in one visit.


Tooth filling repairs esthetic concerns with composite resin materials. The bonding material, a mixture of glass-like and acrylic particles, is shaded and placed onto the prepared area. Metlakatla dentists also use the same material to address cracked or chipped teeth. During tooth contouring, the dentist sands and polishes the outer tooth enamel or restoration to correct the appearances of cosmetic concerns.


This week we are celebrating our Brooklyn cosmetic dentists. Utilizing both procedures, these dentists will be able to reshape malformed teeth, repair dental damage, mask teeth stains, and close embarrassing spaces between teeth.

Periodontal disease is very widespread. In fact, studies from the CDC reveal half of adults over the age of thirty require treatment for periodontal concerns. Without treatment, gum disease could reach an advanced stage. Known as periodontitis, this is actually one of the most common causes of missing teeth. All that to say, when you develop the symptoms of the disease, you should seek help right away. Inflamed and receding gums, especially with bleeding, are common indicators that you need to see a Metlakatla dentist that accepts new patients.


Doctor Network’s dentist search tool can facilitate finding dental clinics in Metlakatla AK that accept MetLife and can offer a route to a healthier smile after examining your smile. If there is any sign of inflammation, then a treatment plan can be created. For milder cases, a scaling and root planing followed by traditional cleanings every three to four months could safeguard the smile. For severe periodontitis stages, there are options like laser dentistry, gum grafts, and more to protect your smile!

In childhood, many of us grind our teeth for short periods of time. The issue tends to last only a few months. But for some, bruxism could mean chronic teeth grinding into and throughout adolescence, and the pressure from clenching your teeth could lead to major complications. Cracks, chips, and worn-down structures could cause discomfort. You’re also more likely to develop cavities or even dental infection, which is why if you grind your teeth, you should consider using Doctors Network’s search tool to find a dentist in Metlakatla.


Your partner or spouse may let you know that you have bruxism when you sleep. Otherwise, symptoms could include toothaches and tooth sensitivity. Treatment options vary. Some dentists bring relief by addressing the causes of teeth grinding. They could correct misalignment with braces, or even replace missing teeth with dental implants. Many offer treatment with custom and comfortable oral splints. So don’t ignore the indicators of bruxism, talk to us about finding the right dentist in your area who accepts MetLife.

Nothing feels better than showing off a perfect smile, but as we get older, many of us struggle with tooth loss. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. Unlike traditional prosthetics, such as dentures or fixed partial dentures, 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 several decades with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you are wondering how much a dental implant costs near you in Metlakatla, you are not alone, but firstly, you should find a Metlakatla dentist who can offer implant dentistry. Doctors Network can help you with this, connecting you to a dental office who not only can address your tooth loss, but also works with MetLife. You can even register for a Doctors Network dental plan to decrease the cost of your treatment.


The dentist will assess the state of 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!

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.
