Perhaps, the most common reason to look for a dentist is a toothache. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For instance, a persistent toothache could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have a toothache that lingers, you most likely need a dental restoration. Doctors Network can help locate dental care in the Thornton, CA area near you who takes MetLife!


When the dental professional examines you, imaging technology is used to assess the severity of the cavity. then, the right treatment is chosen. For children and adults alike, a tooth-filling made from a composite resin could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to address advanced decay. If possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they blend with the smile.

Grownups are not the only ones who benefit from family dentistry. Kids require routine checkups and cleanings as well, and they need to be monitored by a pediatric dentist for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the third molars. If you need to schedule an appointment online with a pediatric dentist in Thornton, CA with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Checkups and cleanings should begin as soon as all twenty baby teeth erupt, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Thornton pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as toothaches, or gingivitis, then intervention might be needed. In addition, children can often receive a topical fluoride gel to strengthen the outer enamel of their teeth and prevent tooth decay. Sealants, which coat the grooves on top of the back molars, can lower the risk of cavities too. In fact, this layer of acrylic can provide protection against tooth cavities for as long as ten years in some cases.


If you are searching for MetLife family dentists in Thornton who can provide children’s dentistry, contact us. We want to help you find the right dental care provider. With routine care children not only enjoy strong and healthy smiles, but they also understand the importance of regular care. These visits can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy smiles. All of it starts with that first consultation. So, use our search tool to find the right practice for you and your family!

We’ve reached the season when kids and adults alike will be playing sports. While we hope everyone has a great time, we know that they could sustain dental trauma. In some situations, especially with full contact sports, teeth could become compromised, and when damage occurs, you need emergency treatment. Even minor damages could lead to an increased risk of aching teeth. Doctors Network can help you access an emergency dentist in Thornton, CA who can examine the situation.


The outer layer of the tooth provides protection against tooth decay. The enamel protects the sensitive inner structures from bacteria, and from the risk of dental infection. But when a tooth is cracked, this could increase the risk of tooth decay. You need treatment before your tooth is compromised. Likewise, you should let us know if you need a Thornton emergency dentist who accepts MetLife for less severe emergencies. Persistent discomfort and objects caught between the teeth could compromise your smile. Don’t forget that knocked out teeth could lead to weakened smiles as well. You also need care if a crown or filling is compromised!


After you visit Doctors Network and begin the search for your Thornton, CA dentist, you can ease your discomfort by taking an over-the-counter pain reliever. A piece of cloth can stem bleeding. A cold compress can ease facial swelling too. If a tooth is damaged or knocked loose, recover the tooth or any pieces and bring them with you. They can be placed in a glass of milk or salt water.

When the season changes, people start going out and enjoying the weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek to undergo cosmetic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed to improve imperfections. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding and gaps can be fixed with Invisalign®. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of better oral health. We want to help connect you to Thornton cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have MetLife and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve a perfect smile.


You can start cosmetic treatments with a cosmetic consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Thornton, CA. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using digital x-rays for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent and cause of your esthetic concerns to find the best treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could correct discolored teeth. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring utilizes laser technology to reshape the gum line and protect your periodontal health. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with major misalignment, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you don’t have a cosmetic dentist in the Thornton, CA area, we can find a dental care provider for you! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with MetLife. We want to help you obtain a smile that makes you feel great!

When a tooth becomes abscessed, treatment is required. Without care, the tooth could become necrotic. At this stage, the tooth may require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into the jaw. Often, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is root canal therapy. The procedure is effective, but sometimes a root canalled tooth becomes infected again, and retreatment could be needed. You may need to see one of our great Thornton emergency dentists for a root canal redo.


Root canal treatment involves removing the tissues from the inside and root canals. The interiors and root canals are cleaned with care, and a restorative material known as gutta-percha is then applied to the interior. Usually, the tooth is then restored with a full restoration. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also match the rest of the smile. But if there are complications with the procedure, the health of the tooth could be unpredictable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience this, don’t risk tooth loss. Doctors Network can help you find an emergency dentist in Thornton, CA that can offer retreatment and accepts MetLife.


If you don’t have dental insurance don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a direct dental plan to make care affordable. With a simple monthly rate, you can undergo necessary root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

Oral health declines when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. 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 patients to look older. More importantly, this limits 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 link you to a local Thornton dentist who is in-network with MetLife and provides jawbone grafting. In addition, we could also discuss our membership plan to make care affordable!


Bone grafting is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could employ new tissue from multiple sources. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as freeze-dried bovine bone particles could be employed as well. We could also recommend synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jaw.


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, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Thornton, CA who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your care fits your budget!

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.
