Sam H.

I went to Dr. Schambeau at Schambeau Dental Care in Bessemer for a second opinion after another dentist said I’d need about $3,000 worth of work and a root canal during my first visit even though I didn’t feel any pain. Dr. Schambeau said that I did need some dental work, but not as much as the other dentist said. And he charged me a fair price. He not only saved me money but communicated with me while he worked on my mouth and let me know when I might feel discomfort or was about to fill in a cavity. He definitely made me feel more comfortable. Everyone I met at Schambeau Dental Care was very kind and welcoming. They were patient and even helped me resolve a problem with my insurance. I will be back, and I highly recommend them to anyone in Bessemer, AL!

When a tooth becomes infected, treatment is required. Not seeking care means the tooth could become necrotic. At this stage, the tooth might need to be extracted. Otherwise, the infection moves into surrounding teeth. If posible, a better treatment for an infected tooth is root canal therapy. This procedure is effective, but sometimes a root canalled tooth becomes infected again, and treatment is once again necessary. You may need to book an appointment with one of our great Helena 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. In many cases, the tooth is then capped with a full restoration. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also match the rest of the smile. But if the procedure is not successful, the health of the tooth could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience discomfort, don’t risk the loss of your teeth. Doctors Network can connect you with an emergency dental services provider in Helena, AL that can offer another root canal and accepts private patients.


If you don’t have dental coverage don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a discount dental plan to make your treatment fit your budget. With a simple monthly rate, you can undergo necessary root canal retreatment without breaking the bank!

When a tooth is severely damaged, it could become infected. The presence of an abscessed tooth means serious discomfort, and without intervention, it could lead to tooth loss. This is why your tooth may need root canal therapy. Fortunately, there are options available to treat an infection. Our network can help connect you to a Helena dental office for root canal therapy. We can also help find an endodontist that accepts self-pay patients.


A dental abscess means that harmful oral bacteria have made contact with sensitive tooth structure. The pulp is the nerve center of the tooth, and it controls the flow of blood and nutrients. Lack of intervention for an infection could allow serious discomfort. A common warning sign of trouble could include swelling near the aching tooth. Don’t ignore unexplained discomfort. Talk to our team about finding a Helena dental professional who accepts self-pay patients and other dental insurance plans.


A root canal procedure is a comfortable treatment that can be completed in one sitting. Essentially, after the root canal specialist plans the treatment, the carious tooth structures are removed from within. The interior of the tooth is cleaned, and gutta percha is added. The last step involves capping the tooth with a porcelain or metal crown. The crown is designed to protect the tooth and look natural. This treatment stops the spread of infection.


Good dental hygiene habits can help lower your risk of future tooth decay and dental infections. Routine six-month visits help as well. If you’re looking for root canal therapy in Helena for dental infection, talk to Doctors Network or schedule an online appointment. You have options, and we know how to find practices that accept self-pay patients.

It is important for children to visit a pediatric dentist twice a year for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist in Helena who takes new patients, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little one with sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a barrier between their molars and harmful germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of decay by up to 80%. It is a simple procedure that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps bolster your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. To learn more, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Helena.

Many individuals would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see myriad products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide lackluster results. However, professional tooth bleaching can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Helena, AL that takes patients with no dental coverage, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Helena dentist, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office option. If you choose the in-office treatment, you will have brighter teeth within about an hour. For this option, your dentist will apply a gel solution to your teeth that they will then activate with a special light, to remove stains.

If you would prefer to choose whitening from the comfort of your home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe bleaching solution. You will put these on for a couple of hours each day for approximately 2 weeks. Once this treatment is over, you will have a brighter smile. If you would like to book an appointment with a Helena dentist that takes patients with no dental coverage, we can help you find a great one.

If it has been over six months since you last saw a dentist, you should schedule a consultation soon. When you go in for bi-annual checkups, your dentist can closely examine your smile to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent cavities from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures in the future. If you need to schedule a checkup with a dentist in Helena, AL that takes private patients we can help you find a great practice.

When you visit your dentist for a checkup, they will start with a thorough cleaning. This will remove plaque and tartar that is tough to remove at home — even with terrific brushing and flossing habits. The cleaning will leave your smile feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is over, your Helena dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your consultation, the dentist will thoroughly look at your mouth to identify any potential issues. If they find anything amiss, they can suggest the proper treatment. The Helena dentist we set you up with will offer a wide range of services to address a variety of dental needs. If you attend regularly scheduled checkups they can keep track of the health of your teeth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a visit with a dentist that takes private patients, we can help you find a great one.

Doctors Network helps keep that reputation strong by providing Alabamians with highly affordable direct dental plans.

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.

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.
