As kids, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease is the number one cause. Since losing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems speaking are a common consequence. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile alignment, or even your facial structure. You need an experienced United Healthcare dentist in Gerber, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will help connect you to a friendly dentist near you. After that, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your tooth loss. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For several missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture could be prescribed. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Gerber area and need a solution for tooth loss, let us help. We can help you get started on receiving a dental prosthetic. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve suffered complete tooth loss, and even if years have gone by since that happened!


P. S. Please congratulate our dentists in Nashville, TN with us this week.

There is no substitute for a full smile, but as we get older, most of us struggle with the loss of natural teeth. Missing teeth could lead to difficulty with eating and speaking, and can even lead to a prematurely aged appearance. To treat tooth loss, people often turn to implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional options, such as dentures or bridges, these are connected to posts that act as new roots. Crowns or even prosthetics like dentures are securely attached to these implant posts. These then act as new roots, so your new teeth can last not ten years, but several decades with proper care and attention.


Are you ready to tackle your tooth loss with dental implants? If you are wondering how much a dental implant costs near Gerber, you are not alone, but first, you need to find a Gerber dentist who can offer surgical placement of dental implants. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your tooth loss, but also accepts United Healthcare. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network membership plan to decrease the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will take a close look at your smile. Underlying oral health concerns may need to be addressed before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer quality prosthetics that look and function like natural dentition!

Major problems arise when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. Even speaking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the break down of density in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause patients to look older. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make tooth replacement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could link you to a good Gerber oral and maxillofacial surgeon who is in-network with United Healthcare and performs ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make care affordable!


Jawbone grafting is also referred to as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to restore the lost structure in your mandible. Your dentist could use various sources. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials like bovine bone could be employed as well. Some opt for synthetic materials. During oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the mandible bone.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will accept them as natural roots. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Gerber, CA who performs ridge augmentation and dental implants, and also let you know about our membership plan to make sure your treatment fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to several problems for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can talk. But the most serious complication is the loss of integrity in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of phosphate and calcium to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and an older appearance and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Gerber, CA who can make smiles ready for implants.


As we’ve discussed in previous posts, a ridge augmentation procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the upper jaw? Instead of grafting, your Gerber dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate new bone structure. The new structure can support your new implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to preserve the area. Your new teeth can then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support one or more dental implants, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Gerber, CA dental professional who can offer a sinus lift and takes United Healthcare. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our Direct Dental Plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile can happen!

Have you lost most of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean poor oral health, from trouble eating a variety of foods, to difficulties speaking clearly. Your jaw loses bone mass following tooth loss, which could lead to worsening dental health. In some cases, an older appearance could develop as well. You could benefit from implant dentures not only to replace missing teeth, but also to preserve your youthful features. But what if your jaw is too weak for multiple dental implants? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Gerber dentist who specializes in All-On-4 procedure.


Traditional implant dentures need between six and eight posts per arch. But with All-on-4, only four small posts are necessary. Even if your jaw has begun to break down this could still support a full set of dentures. No need to undergo bone ridge preservation beforehand! These can also often be placed with the denture attached on the same visit. In fact, these are often known as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best United Healthcare dentists in Gerber who can restore your new smile. You can even book a dentist appointment.


If you have concerns regarding the cost of dental implants, then consider registering for our Direct Dental Plan. This membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on the cost of cosmetic dentistry. This helps our Gerber patients find affordable dental care, and enjoy a full smile again.

Do you have a missing tooth? Or, have you suffered having multiple missing teeth in your smile? If so, this could mean more than just embarrassing gaps in your smile. Over time, you may develop negative impacts on the function, health, and beauty of your smile. In fact, you could even develop major changes to your facial structures! To safeguard the health, beauty, and function of your smile, you need help from a good dental professional in Gerber, and we can connect you to dental professionals that accept United Healthcare!


What happens when gaps appear in your smile? Well, the surrounding teeth could drift from position, impacting your overall smile alignment. The pressure on your jaw joints and bite balance could lead to painful complications, like TMD or persistent teeth grinding or clenching. You could have difficulty eating your favorite foods, and speaking clearly could be complicated too. But the most severe complication is the the weakening of the jaw. This means that you could suffer further tooth loss. In addition, you could begin to look much older! But help is available, as Gerber dentists could discuss advanced prosthetics, such as bridges, dentures, and implants, and select treatment options that could be covered with United Healthcare.


Dental bridges could address minor tooth loss. Dentures could provide solutions for more severe cases. For the perfect solution to your tooth loss, you could find the best Gerber dentists that offer dental implants. Do not let tooth loss impact your quality of life, and talk to our team about finding a cosmetic dentist!

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.
