Doctors Network

From 1836 to 1845, Texas was its own independent nation, and it is the only state to have joined the U.S. through treaty rather than territorial annexation. Today, it is home to nearly 28 million people, making it the second most populous state (next to California) as well as the second largest (next to Alaska). Known as the Lone Star State, Texas’ independence and spirit has persevered throughout its history, and today’s Texans continue to do things their way. When it comes to dental health care, that means offering families across the state highly affordable alternatives to dental insurance through direct plans. Provided by your dentist in partnership with Doctors Network, a direct dental plan guarantees significant savings on all treatments that your dentist and oral health specialists provide, and it works whether or not you already have insurance coverage.

Doctors Network

Texans like to tackle things head on, which happens to be the best way to take care of your dental health. Being proactive with regular checkups and cleanings helps prevent dental issues from developing or growing worse. However, over 19% of people in Texas do not have insurance, which can make paying for routine dental care sometimes difficult. The good news is that Doctors Network helps families across Texas remain as proactive as possible by keeping the costs of dental health care low. Checkups and cleanings are only $25 per visit under the network’s direct dental plan. Also, the costs for treatments such as teeth-whitening, Invisalign®, tooth-colored fillings, porcelain crowns, dental implants, and more are all drastically reduced by up to 90%.

    This place is awesome. I hate going to the dentist and needles being in my mouth. Dr. Pham kindly explained everything to me, including the level of sedation and what they meant. He could tell I was nervous, but I felt so comfortable that I only needed gas for my cleaning. I’m going to be coming back for fillings in a week, and I’m not nervous at all. The staff is very caring and knowledgeable. I hadn’t been to the dentist in 35 years, but Dr. Pham and his staff made me feel very comfortable. Everyone in Hurst who hates the dentist should give this place a try.

    I just recently started going to Dr. Drakeford. After my first appointment where she listened to my questions and concerns, she scheduled an appointment 3 days afterward for my crown prep and a temporary partial. I was worried about losing a tooth anchor for a filed 5 tooth bridge and not having a partial to make it look more natural until the treatment was complete. Dr. Drakeford took my concerns away and made me feel calm and comfortable. She had a new assistant who actually came in on her day off to help her with me. Friday was supposed to be her day off too, but she still came in and saw me. I left feeling very satisfied, and they were both very nice. The front desk staff was kind and caring. The office is very big and has the latest technology. They offer more operations than any other dentist in Dallas. The office is beautiful, and so is the art they hang up on the walls. I recommend this place, and I feel very lucky to have found them.

    Dr. Nannapaneni is the greatest doctor in Garland, Texas area. I’ve had a lot of dental work done in the past, and oral surgery too. I feel very lucky to have found Dr. Nannapaneni. He treats his patients like real people rather than just a mouth in the chair, and he takes his time with each appointment. Don’t schedule an appointment when you have a lot to do that day. He would never try to upsell procedures to you, he’s very honest, and this honesty has saved me money. He explains why he’s doing what he’s doing. The first time I came here I was immediately won over because of the comfortable atmosphere. Dr. Nannapaneni is friendly and easy to talk to. He’s really great.

What is tooth extraction?

a
ache-remover-696

Tooth extraction or tooth removal is classified into two main types: simple extractions and surgical extractions. Understanding the difference between these types can help you prepare for your procedure. 1. Simple Extraction: This method of tooth extraction is performed on a tooth that is fully erupted in the mouth and can be removed with dental forceps with relative ease. After administering a topical anesthetic and then local anesthetic (Novocaine) to numb the area, the dentist or oral surgeon loosens the tooth by luxating it with an instrument called a straight elevator and then removes it with surgical forceps. Simple dental extraction is typically performed without the need to cut the gum, which is called raising a gingival flap in technical terminology, which is the process of making an incision in the gum and then separating the entire thickness of the gum away from the underlying bone, thereby exposing the actual jaw bone under it. This is done usually for teeth that are carious, damaged, or need to be extracted for orthodontic reasons. 2. Surgical Extraction: Surgical tooth extractions are more complex and are considered for teeth that are not easily accessible, such as impacted wisdom teeth (3rd molars) or teeth that have very little clinical crown left of them. Root tips also need to be surgically exposed sometimes. This method involves making the aforementioned incision in the gum tissue to expose the tooth and the underlying bone. The tooth may be cut into smaller pieces for easy removal. Sometime it is even required to truph the bone surrounding the roots (alveolar bone). Truphing the bone is the process of cutting the alveolar bone around the tooth to loosen the roots further, usually done on roots that are significantly curved or ankylosed (adhered to the bone). Surgical dental extraction is usually performed under local anesthesia, but sedation options are also available usually for wisdom teeth removal or high anxiety patients. Surgical tooth extraction may be needed for impacted teeth that are deeply embedded in the jawbone.

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.
