Dr. Greg Hawkins knew that dentistry was his calling after his own dentist helped him deal with a bad oral health situation as a child. He realized that he wanted to do the same for others and started on the track to becoming a dentist. Dr. Hawkins attended Holly Pond High School, then went on to Auburn University where he completed his undergraduate studies by 1983. He graduated from the University of Alabama School of Dentistry in 1988. Since then, he has been a practicing dentist, working closely with his patients to treat their conditions and provide them with long-lasting solutions.

When winter ends, people go out more to enjoy the beautiful 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 can be treated with orthodontics. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of bright, healthy teeth. We want to help you find great Spruce Pine cosmetic dentists who take on patients who have no insurance and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


Correcting your smile starts with a comprehensive exam with your dentist in Spruce Pine, AL. The doctor will carefully assess your cosmetic concerns. Using digital technology for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the cause of your cosmetic concerns to come up with a tailored treatment for your smile. 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 manage gum disease. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with malocclusion, Invisalign® may be possible.


If you do not have a dentist in the Spruce Pine, AL area, we can help! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with no insurance. We want to help you obtain a smile that is also healthy and strong!

It is important for your little ones to visit the dentist on a semiannual basis for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching children preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the skills to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a pediatric dental professional in Spruce Pine who accepts private patients, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering checkups and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your little one with dental sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a barrier between their permanent teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of tooth decay by up to eighty percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps bolster your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most durable substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to dental caries. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using toothpaste that has fluoride can also help. For more information, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Spruce Pine.

Many people would be ecstatic to have a whiter smile. When you walk down the aisles of any grocery store, you see myriad products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide unsatisfying results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually produce a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Spruce Pine, AL that works with patients with no dental insurance, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Spruce Pine dental practice, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office treatment. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly 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 get whitening at 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 few hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Spruce Pine dentist that accepts patients with no dental insurance, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been at least half a year since you last went to a dentist, you probably should schedule an appointment soon. When you go in for consistent checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your teeth to make sure nothing is wrong. This helps prevent decay from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more invasive procedures down the road. If you need to schedule a checkup with a dentist in Spruce Pine, AL that takes patients with no insurance we can help you find a great office.

When you visit your dentist for a checkup, they will start with a thorough cleaning. This will remove built-up that is hard to remove at home — even with terrific brushing and flossing habits. The dental cleaning will leave your teeth feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is completed, your Spruce Pine dentist will begin his or her examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your oral cavity to identify any potential complications. If they find anything amiss, they will explain your treatment options. The Spruce Pine practice we set you up with will offer comprehensive services to address a variety of dental complications. If you attend regularly scheduled checkups they can monitor the health of your smile. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment online with a dentist that takes patients with no insurance, we can help you find a great one.

With a population of nearly five million, Alabama is one of the most historically relevant of the United States. For instance, the first rocket to put humans on the moon was built by Alabamians. The state is also one of the most health-conscious, and is known for a generally reasonable cost of living and its affordable health care programs. Doctors Network helps keep that reputation strong by providing Alabamians with highly affordable direct dental plans. By signing up with a direct plan at your primary dentist’s office, you can enjoy significant savings on all aspects of your dental health care, even if you already have existing dental insurance coverage.

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.
