Adults are not the only ones who benefit from regular dental care. Adolescents require regular preventive dentistry as well, and they need to be monitored by a dental professional for issues like tooth decay. This could include dental malocclusion, or for teens, the eruption of the third molars. If you need to find a family dentist in Allgood, AL with experience helping little smiles, then Doctors Network is ready to help you.


Routine examinations should begin when all baby teeth come in, and should not be skipped. These visits enable your Allgood pediatric dentist to monitor smiles as they grow, and if areas of concern develop, such as dental cavities, or gingivitis, then treatment can be administered. In addition, kids can often receive preventive fluoride treatments to strengthen the outer enamel of their dentition and prevent tooth decay. Sealants, which coat the hard-to-reach rear teeth, can protect teeth for years to come. In fact, sealants can last as long as a decade in some cases.


If you are searching for dentists in Allgood who can offer care for kids, contact us. We want to help you find a dentist in your area. With routine care kids not only can enjoy healthy smiles, but they also learn the value of caring for their smiles. Checkups and cleanings can start them on the path to a lifetime of healthy gums and teeth. All of it starts with that initial dental exam. So, use our search tool to find the best practice for you and your children!

If you have a toothache, or a tooth that is broken or cracked, you need treatment. Otherwise, the tooth could develop a decay and infections. Soon, there is a risk of not only tooth loss, but a spread of infection to other areas of the jaw. But sometimes, the cavity is beyond the stage to be treated with a restoration. Instead, the tooth could require immediate removal. At Doctors Network, our team can help you connect with a quality dentist or oral surgeon in Allgood, AL who can offer a effective tooth extraction as needed.


As we discussed earlier, severe cavities or injury could be why a tooth needs extraction. But a dentist could also remove one that is loosened by periodontitis. Removing a tooth could restore overall balance and chewing function. Extraction could also provide room for orthodontic treatment! In many cases, this could prevent wisdom tooth impaction. Removing wisdom teeth prior to eruption helps preserve the balance and overall esthetics. For people with advanced tooth loss, removing the last few teeth essentially paves the way for full or partial dentures. Your Allgood dentist could use this to improve the health, function, and surprisingly, sometimes the appearance of your smile.


Now that you understand why a tooth may need an extraction, how do you seek care for one? Well, as mentioned above Doctors Network can find your dentist in the Allgood, AL area. But if you don’t have coverage, you may worry about costs. Fortunately, we have a direct payment plan! Our dental membership plan is opened with an initial fee and maintained with a monthly fee. For some, this could reduce the cost of care by up to 90%!

You probably have lots of friends who have had their wisdom teeth pulled and are eager to describe their experience to you. While this can be helpful, it is still crucial to consult with a dentist or an oral surgeon. If you need these teeth extracted, it is important to have lots of information at your disposal. This will help you understand what to expect from the procedure and what you should expect from the dentist. Luckily, Doctors Network can help you connect with a great dentist near you in Allgood, AL that accepts private patients.


The third molars or wisdom teeth are located in the back of your mouth, and there is one on each quadrant. They usually appear between seventeen and twenty-five. Because they are the last teeth to erupt, their presence can cause problems with your existing ones. They can erupt at odd directions, only partially come in, or overcrowd your existing teeth. When this happens, they are probably going to be affected by abscess and infections. If any of these conditions take place, it can be very uncomfortable and can damage your existing teeth. If you think you might have complications with wisdom teeth eruption, it is important to see a Allgood oral surgeon quickly.


If you in fact need wisdom tooth extraction, your dentist will determine how they will go about the removal to make certain everything goes without complications. They will decide how many of your teeth need to be removed and how complex it could get. They will also decide the appropriate type of sedation and the position of your existing vital anatomy such as nerves. Once they ascertain these facts, they can extract your wisdom teeth more easily. When you come in for the procedure, you will receive the appropriate sedation, so you will not feel discomfort. Your dentist will extract your teeth and monitor you the entire time to make sure you are ok. Once your wisdom teeth are extracted, you will be provided with post-surgery care instructions. Fortunately, there are many Allgood dentists that accept private patients and can skillfully pull your wisdom teeth.

It is important for children to visit a pediatric dentist on a semiannual basis for checkups and cleanings. By teaching your kids preventative measures to protect their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for life. If you are looking for a kids dentist in Allgood who takes new patients, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kids with sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80%. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing cavities on adult teeth in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps fortify your child’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 prevents this from happening. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our pediatric dentists in Allgood.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any grocery store, you see numerous products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have used any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional tooth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Allgood, AL that works with self-pay patients, we can help you find one that offers professional whitening.

When you visit your Allgood dental practice, they can provide you with either an at-home or in-office option. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. When you visit the office for whitening, your dentist will apply a special bleaching gel that, when activated by a special light, will get rid of stains.

If you would prefer to choose whitening at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe bleaching solution. You will wear these for one or two hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to schedule a visit online with a Allgood dentist that takes self-pay patients, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been at least half a year since you last saw a dentist, you should schedule an appointment soon. When you go in for bi-annual checkups, your dentist can thoroughly examine your mouth to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent dental caries from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more costly procedures down the road. If you need to schedule an online appointment with a dentist in Allgood, AL that takes private patients we can help you find a great office.

To begin your visit, a hygienist will clean your teeth thoroughly. This will remove plaque and tartar that is hard to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The cleaning will leave your mouth feeling fresh.

Once your cleaning is completed, your Allgood dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential problems. If they find anything amiss, they will explain your treatment options. The Allgood dental practice we set you up with will offer a wide range of services to address a variety of dental needs. When you visit the dentist consistently they can monitor the health of your mouth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a visit with a dentist that accepts private patients, we can help you find a great one.

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.
