After going to my usual dentist for 6 years, I got really sick of waiting for them to get to my appointment, hasty cleaning and procedures, and incomplete dental assessments, so I started looking for a new dentist. I’m so glad I went to Schambeau Dental Care in Bessemer, AL! The second I set foot in the office, all the staff members were extremely friendly and very helpful, answering any questions I had. After waiting only 2 minutes, they took me to the back. They thoroughly but quickly assessed my gums and teeth. Afterward, Dr. Schambeau told me that I needed a crown on one of my teeth. He taught me what the crown is used for and even explained what he was seeing in my x-rays. After I gave him the go-ahead, he started the procedure the same day, placing a temporary crown over my tooth. Dr. Schambeau was fantastic! I didn’t even have any pain during the procedure, and he and the hygienist were both very conscientious. They told me my permanent crown would be ready in 2 weeks, but it was actually done in under 1 week. I just had my permanent crown placed, and I can honestly say that Schambeau Dental Care did a fantastic job. I highly recommend them to all my family and friends!

If you have a chipped tooth or one that is misshapen, then you might need a cosmetic consultation. With enameloplasty and tooth-color fillings in Birmingham, AL, these cosmetic imperfections can be can be addressed with lifelike results. At Doctors Network, we can help connect you with a dental care professional in Birmingham, AL who takes Guardian and offers cosmetic dentistry. You may not be aware just how much tooth-colored fillings can correct in only one sitting.


Tooth filling repairs cosmetic concerns using a metal-free material. The bonding material, a blend of glass and acrylic particles, is shaded and placed in the tooth preparation. Birmingham general dentists also use this material to fill tooth cavities. During tooth contouring, the dentist sands the outer tooth surfaces to correct your damaged or malformed tooth.


Today we are celebrating our Brooklyn dentists. Utilizing both procedures, these dentists will be able to reshape malformed teeth, fixed broken or fractured teeth, mask teeth stains, and even close spaces between the teeth.

A common reason to look for a dentist is to address pain in one or more teeth. While temporary aches could occur for multiple reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For example, a lasting toothache could be caused by the presence of a cavity, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding and clenching. When you have a toothache that lingers, you probably need a dentist. Doctors Network can help connect you to a dentist in the Birmingham, AL area who takes Guardian!


When the dentist examines your smile, digital x-rays are used to assess the severity of the cavity. From there, the appropriate treatment option is chosen. For kids and adults alike, a dental filling made from a composite resin could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to address major cavities. If possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they ensure an attractive smile. If you have an aching tooth, use our search module to connect with Birmingham dentists who are open on Sundays and book an appointment.

When spring arrives, people start going out and enjoying the weather, and of course, we want to look our best when we socialize, which is why many people seek cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures designed purely to correct common esthetic issues. Teeth stains can be removed, and teeth crowding or gaps between the teeth can be corrected with braces. At Doctors Network, we understand the value of better oral health. We want to help you book an online appointment with Birmingham dentists who take on patients who have Guardian and can offer the range of treatment needed to achieve optimal smile beauty.


The first step toward a new smile is a comprehensive exam with your dentist in Birmingham, AL. The doctor will carefully examine your smile. Using digital x-rays for a precise diagnosis, the dentist will assess the extent of your esthetic concerns in order to come up with a personalized treatment plan. For stains, professional teeth whitening could remove discolorations. Dental bonding and contouring can reshape your teeth in one visit. Gum contouring employs dental lasers to reshape the gum line and manage gum disease. Porcelain veneers are cosmetic restorations that change a tooth’s shape and color, and for those with major misalignment, braces might be the treatment of choice.


If you do not currently have a dentist in the Birmingham, AL area, we can find a dental care provider for you! Visit Doctors Network to find a provider in your area who accepts patients with Guardian. We want to help you obtain a smile that makes you feel great!

Have you ever noticed popping or crackling sound in the jaw? Do you have frequent headaches or jaw pain? If so, this could be related to widespread jaw joint disorders. Around twenty-five million people in the United States suffer from chronic bruxism and TMJ dysfunction. Without treatment, these could not only lead to painful symptoms, but actually crack or chip a tooth! Fortunately, your friends at Doctors Network can find the right dental office in Birmingham, AL who accepts Guardian.


While very different from one another, these two disorders are often related. TMJ disorder develops when the joints connecting the jaw and skull are stressed. This could cause problems opening and closing the mouth fully. Common symptoms include pain in the jaw, head, face, and neck. Bruxism means you grind or clench your teeth nightly. The stress caused by grinding could cause jaw pain and headaches. Teeth grinding could also fracture or break your teeth. This damage could lead to decay, infection, and more. Both disorders could be caused by issues that strain the jaw joints, and untreated TMJ disorder could cause bruxism, and vice-versa. When you have persistent pain in your head and neck, you should find help. We can even connect you with a dental professional in Birmingham who accepts Guardian.


There are, however, multiple treatment options available; for some, relief is possible following dental bonding, which improves bite balance. For others, treating malocclusion with aligners or braces could ease strain and stop symptoms. The most common option offered by most dental professionals is a custom splint, which fits like a mouthguard. If you need to find treatment from a Birmingham dentist. then contact our team!

Cavities are common oral diseases, and without treatment could lead to tender infections or even the increased risk of tooth abscess. When you have discomfort that lingers for a while, then you likely have a tooth decay that needs filling. If you have tooth pain, and you need to find a dentist near you who treats patients with Guardian, search for dental offices in Birmingham on Doctors Network.


Cavities form when the outer layer of enamel is weakened. The erosion of the enamel often occurs due to poor oral hygiene habits, such as not brushing and flossing frequently enough. A diet high in starchy foods is another common factor. Once dental caries forms, it will grow unless treated, and lack of treatment could actually mean worsening pain and an infected tooth. Common warning signs include aching teeth. When you experience pain in a tooth, don’t delay. Our network can help connect you with a dentist in Birmingham for caries risk assessment.


Treating a case of tooth decay often means placing a back tooth cavity filling. First, the dentist will remove the weakened portions from the tooth. Next, amalgam or composite resin material is added to the tooth. The dentist then sculpts the composite as it hardens. The entire process only takes one appointment. A dental restoration helps stop discomfort and protects the smile from complications such as infections. If you need to find out how much a tooth filling costs with Guardian in Birmingham, AL, then utilize our team. You can even sign up for a dental plan and set up a dentist appointment online. We can help you find the right dentist for your oral health needs!

It is imperative for kids to visit the dentist on a biannual basis for exams and cleanings. By teaching your children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a pediatric dental office in Birmingham who accepts Guardian, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child with sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their back teeth and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of infection by up to eighty percent. It is a simple tool that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps fortify your child’s teeth. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your child’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment helps stop decay from occurring. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Birmingham.

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.

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.
