Doctors Network

It has been said that if you stretched Wisconsin’s 7,446 miles of streams and rivers end to end, they could circle the globe at the equator. In addition, the state also boasts five state parks and over 250 miles of shoreline along Lake Michigan. Wisconsin’s impressive natural beauty is just one of the state’s many wonders, and only one reason why residents and tourists alike love the Badger State. Now, families have even more reason to love Wisconsin with direct dental plans from Doctors Network. Offered directly through dentists’ offices in Wisconsin, direct dental plans can help the state’s over 5.7 million residents save on all of their dental health care costs. Because the plan works separately from insurance, patients are eligible to join whether or not they already have existing coverage.

Doctors Network

With less than 6.6% of people in Wisconsin uncovered by insurance, Wisconsin’s uninsured population is lower than most other states. Yet, even with insurance, many patients are surprised to learn that their coverage doesn’t adequately cover many of the treatments they need or want. Some plans leave people with high out-of-pocket expenses that they cannot afford, rendering the insurance plan useless. With Doctors Network, there are no surprises. The plan covers every treatment that your dentist offers, and follows a predetermined fee schedule that does not change without notice. Regular checkup and cleaning appointments are only $25 per visit, including X-rays, while other treatments (such as fillings, root canal therapy, dental crowns, implants, and more) will always be discounted, sometimes by up to 90%. Everyone can qualify for a direct dental plan regardless of age or the state of their current dental health.

    I recently had a dental emergency during my trip to Milwaukee, and was in such pain, such severe pain! I ended up having a molar extracted. I was so nervous, but Dr. Rehman and everyone at Bright Dental took great care of me and was so sweet. Dr. Rehman gave me lots of tips on how to take even better care of me teeth! So grateful!

    Due to previous bad dental experiences, I’m a little nervous to go to the dentist and haven’t seen one in a few years, but Dr. Riesberg is amazing! He instantly calmed my nerves. I thought I needed a root canal, but he said it wasn’t that serious. He thoroughly explained what I was doing wrong in terms of my tooth care and diet. He treated the affected area quickly, and then I had my cleaning. Everything was painless, and I was out in under an hour. I just wish I had found Jeffrey E Riesberg DDS in Highland Park, IL a lot sooner!

    After checking reviews on Doctors Network, I decided to go to Mark D Pusateri DDS for a routine check up. Doctors Network did right by me once again! Everyone here was so kind and helpful and gave me tips on how to care for my teeth. They even emailed me all my new patient paperwork, so I could fill them out ahead of time and save time at the office. That was awesome. While I was there, they kept me calm, which is hard to do at the dentist office. Dr. Pusateri is calm, welcoming, and gentle. He was also really helpful, and after speaking with him, I now see why he had such great ratings. A couple of days later, I returned for a cleaning, and the dental hygienist who cleaned my teeth was so inviting and helpful, too. I’ve seen a few good dentists in my lifetime, but as long as I live in Palatine, IL, I’ll keep seeing Dr. Pusateri.

    I have really bad dental anxiety. I loved my old dentist, but she was a specialist. I needed a general dentist for check-ups and routine work near my home in Winnetka, IL. After reading through multiple reviews on Doctors Network, I took a chance on Winnetka Dental Care and booked an appointment. Dr. Raghian’s office has really flexible hours, which is convenient because I work. Just make sure you schedule ahead of time because they fill up fast! Honestly, I was pretty scared for my appointment, but from the receptionist to the hygienist to the dentist, everyone was so inviting and kind. During that appointment, I had X-rays taken and a cleaning. I needed to schedule another appointment, and since that first visit, I’ve now been back two times - both times were good or even better than the first! My last visit was an emergency appointment because one of my old crowns fell out. I was so glad they could get me in the same day I called. Plus, I had some issues with my flex spending account, but they understood and helped me fix it. If you’re scared of the dentist, check out this dental office - Dr. Raghian will change your life!

    I started coming to Dr. Amante at Amante Dental Center, and I’m so glad I made the change. He is always kind and friendly. I’m so glad I actually found a dentist in Schaumburg I like. The office is spotless and always has a lot of natural light, which made me feel relaxed and definitely less claustrophobic than how I’ve felt at other places when I sit in the chair. Check in was easy and fast, as were x-rays. They were very professional and obviously knew what they were doing. The hygienist did a very thorough cleaning of my teeth, it was the best I’ve ever had. I went in to get fillings done a couple of weeks ago, and those turned out great as well. He made sure that my new bite still worked with my retainers. I had to stay a little bit later for that, but he didn’t seem to mind and I never felt like I was being a problem. I’ve recommended Dr. Amante to all my friends and family who live in Schaumburg, even if they aren’t looking for a new dentist. He’s that good. I wish I had found this place sooner. My teeth look great, better than they ever have. I can’t thank Dr. Amante enough for all they do.

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.
