As adolescents, we lose our baby teeth as a natural part of growing up. However, as adults, losing teeth means poor oral health. Gum disease leads to major tooth loss. Since missing teeth at this age isn’t natural, this means oral health complications. You could have problems with nutritional intake. Problems speaking could occur. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even your youthful features. You need a skilled United Healthcare dentist in Elkhorn, CA who can correct your tooth loss. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.


First, we will connect you to a dentist near you. Once we do, your new dentist can inspect your smile to assess your missing teeth. For mild cases, a dental bridge could be the best option, restoring smile function. For multiple missing teeth, partials could offer a solution and address complicated tooth loss. Finally, a complete denture or CD could be custom-made. While most complete dentures and partials are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants essentially look and function like natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your alveolar bone and facial structure following missing a tooth.


If you live in the Elkhorn‘s neighborhoods and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can get you started on receiving bridges or dentures. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have elapsed since that happened!


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

You can’t put a price on a full smile, but as we get older, most of us struggle with missing teeth. Missing teeth could lead to trouble with eating and speaking, and can even lead to bone loss in the jaw. To treat missing teeth, people often turn to implants and fixed dentures. 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.


Are you ready to replace missing teeth with dental implants? If you are wondering how much dental implants cost near Elkhorn, you are not alone, but firstly, you need to find a Elkhorn dentist who can offer implant dentistry. Doctors Network’s search tool can help you with this, connecting you to a dentist who not only can address your concerns about missing teeth, but also accepts United Healthcare. Same-day appointments are usually available. You can even register for a Doctors Network membership plan to reduce the cost of your procedure.


The dentist will carefully examine your smile. Underlying issues like gum disease may need to be considered before moving forward. But once completed, your dental implants will offer replacement teeth that look and function like natural teeth!

Oral health declines 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 loss of structure in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause a prematurely aged appearance. More importantly, this limits dental implant placement. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to prepare the gum for dental implants! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a local Elkhorn oral 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 known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to rebuild jawbone structure in your mandible. Your dentist could use a number of different options. We could take tissue from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials such as bovine bone particles could also be used. Some opt for synthetic materials. Through oral surgery, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


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, protecting facial structure. Our team can connect you to a dentist or oral surgeon in Elkhorn, 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 major issues for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can talk. But the most serious complication is the break down of structure in the jaw. The body suspends the flow of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals to the areas without teeth, which in turn causes bone loss and the loss of youthful facial structure 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 Elkhorn, CA who can make smiles ready for implants.


As discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the lower jaw, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of a grafting procedure, your Elkhorn dentist could perform a sinus lift. Essentially, the dentist will push up the sinus floor to induce the formation of new bone structure. The new structure can support dental 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 Elkhorn, CA oral surgeon who can address tooth loss and takes United Healthcare. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a whole smile again. If you don’t have dental insurance, don’t let this stand between you and a complete smile. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is in your future!

Have you lost all of your natural teeth? If so, this could mean poor oral health, from trouble eating a variety of foods, to difficulties talking. Your jaw loses bone density following tooth loss, which could lead to further tooth loss. In some cases, a breakdown in the facial structures 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 a set of implant-secured dentures? Then Doctors Network can recommend a Elkhorn family dentist who specializes in performing All-On-4s.


Most fixed dentures need between six and eight posts per jaw. But with All-on-4, you only need four posts. Even if your jaw has lost mass and density this could still support a full set of teeth. No need to undergo bone ridge preservation beforehand! These can also often be placed with the denture attached on the same visit. In fact, that’s why this is often referred to as Teeth-In-A-Day. Our team can help find best United Healthcare dentists in Elkhorn who can restore your new smile. You can even request a dental visit.


If you questions about the cost, then consider getting our Direct Dental Plan. Our simple membership program allows you to pay a small monthly fee, which is set by your dentist, to save significantly on major and minor treatments. This helps our Elkhorn patients find affordable dental care, and obtain healthier smiles.

Do you have any tooth missing? Or, have you lost several or possibly all of them? If so, this could mean more than just embarrassing gaps in your smile. Over time, you may develop negative impacts on the health, beauty, and function of your smile. In fact, you could even develop major changes to your facial structure! To replace your missing teeth, you need help from a good dental practice around Elkhorn, and we can help you find local dental practices that accept United Healthcare!


What happens when natural teeth are lost? 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 TMJ disorder or bruxism. You could have difficulty eating your favorite foods, and speaking clearly could become challenging too. But the most serious complication is the the weakening of the jaw. This means that you could suffer further tooth loss. In addition, a prematurely aged appearance could arise! But help is available, as Elkhorn dentists could discuss dental prosthetics that fit your smile, and select treatment options that could be covered with United Healthcare.


Dental bridges could address minor tooth loss. Dentures could replace the majority or all of your natural teeth. For a functional and effective prosthetic, you could find the best Elkhorn dentists that perform tooth implant. Do not let missing teeth complicate your daily life, and talk to our team about finding a prosthodontist!

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.
