Doctors Network

Tennessee holds the tie with Missouri for most neighborly state, being bordered by a total of eight other states. However, its official nickname is the Volunteer State, which volunteer soldiers from Tennessee earned when they fought with exceptional valor in the Battle of New Orleans. Today, being neighborly and helping others is a distinct Tennessee characteristic, along with its myriad of tourist attractions, such as Graceland and the Grand Ole Opry. To help families across the state take better care of themselves, Doctors Network has partnered with dentists across Tennessee to help keep dental health costs easily manageable. Patients who sign up for a direct dental plan through their primary dentists can enjoy savings on every dental treatment they receive, from routine checkups and cleanings to lifelike restorations and more.

Doctors Network

Tennessee’s friendly ambience is easily noticeable to tourists in the smiling faces they see everywhere they go. Maintaining those smiles isn’t always easy, especially for the 12% of the population that does not have insurance. With a population of over 6.6 million people coupled with the increasing costs of dental health care, experts in Tennessee have taken an important step in helping to ensure a high standard of dental care for everyone. With a direct dental plan from Doctors Network, your dentist can provide high-end dental care at substantially discounted prices. For example, checkup and cleaning appointments only cost $25 per visit under a direct dental plan, including routine X-rays at no additional cost. Cosmetic treatments like teeth-whitening and Invisalign®, as well as restorations such as tooth fillings, dental crowns, and dental implants, are all discounted significantly, often by up to 90%.

Can scaling and root planing help me reverse gum disease?

b
brush-whisperer-151

In many cases, gingivitis can be reversed with scaling and root planing (known as deep cleaning) and a strict routine of good hygiene and preventative dental care. However, if the condition progresses into periodontitis, then it might no longer be reversible, and will have to be controlled through regular periodontal maintenance.

What is scaling/root planing (Deep Cleaning)?

f
fluoride-achiever-2

Gingivitis marks the beginning of periodontal disease, and describes inflammation in the gums caused by excessive oral bacteria buildup (in the form of plaque and tartar). Because gingivitis occurs underneath the gums, routine dental cleaning won’t suffice to treat it. Scaling and root planing, also known as deep cleaning, involves removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line. Then, your periodontist will smooth the roots of your teeth underneath the gums to discourage further oral bacteria buildup. As plaque and tartar accumulate on the roots, the buildup and resulting inflammation cause your gum tissues to recede slightly from your teeth. This creates deepening periodontal pockets where oral bacteria can continue to gather and multiply, worsening the infection and inflammation. Periodontal cleaning helps stop the infection by removing the films of plaque and tartar from your roots (scaling), and then smoothing their surfaces (planing) to inhibit bacterial buildup as your gums heal. In cases where gum disease has already developed, scaling and root planing should be followed by a strict schedule of checkups, cleanings, and periodontal maintenance. Your periodontist can prescribe appropriate treatment options, such as gingival grafting or pocket reduction surgery, to fortify your compromised tissues so you can recover from gum disease.

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.

I fell off my bike and chipped my front tooth. I was able to find and book an appointment online right away. Next time I need an appointment I'll try Doctors Network again.
