When a tooth develops an infection, treatment is required. Lack of treatment means the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth may need extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into other parts of the smile. If posible, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is a root canal. This procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again and requires additional care. You may need to book an emergency dental visit with one of our knowledgeable Lincoln dentists or endodontists for further treatments.


Root canal treatment involves removing the tissues from inside of the tooth. The interiors and root canals are thoroughly cleaned, and a restorative material known as gutta percha is then administered. Often, the tooth is then restored with a full restoration. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also blend with the smile. But if the procedure does not go as expected, the health of the tooth could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience discomfort, do not risk tooth loss. Doctors Network can connect you with an emergency dentist in Lincoln, NE that can offer retreatment and accepts new patients.


If you don’t have dental coverage don’t let that discourage you! Doctors Network can offer a discount dental plan to make care affordable. With a monthly membership fee, you can obtain a root canal retreatment at a reasonable cost!

When a tooth is decayed, it could become infected. The presence of abscess means serious discomfort, and without treatment, it could result in progressively worsening discomfort. This is why your tooth may need treatment. Fortunately, there are options available to treat an infection. Our network can help connect you to a Lincoln dental professional for endodontic treatment. We can also help find a dentist that accepts uninsured patients.


A dental infection means that harmful anaerobic bacteria have made contact with interior nerve tissues. The pulp is the nerve center of the tooth, and it ensures a functional tooth. Lack of intervention for an abscess could allow symptoms to grow worse. A common warning sign of trouble could include toothaches. Don’t ignore a potential symptom. Talk to our team about finding a Lincoln dentist who accepts uninsured patients and other forms of coverage.


A root canal procedure is a gentle endodontic treatment that can be completed in one sitting. Essentially, after the dental specialist plans the treatment, the diseased pulp tissues are removed from within. The interior of the tooth is cleaned, and a restorative filling is added. The last step involves capping the tooth with a porcelain or gold crown. The crown is designed to protect the tooth and look natural. This procedure prevents tooth loss.


Daily brushing and flossing can help lower your risk of future tooth decay and dental infections. Dental exams help as well. If you’re looking for root canal therapy in Lincoln for dental infection, contact Doctors Network or book an online appointment. You have options, and we know how to find practices that accept uninsured patients.

It is paramount for children to visit a dental professional twice a year for checkups and cleanings. By teaching your children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the knowledge to have healthy smiles for ever. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist in Lincoln who takes uninsured patients, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering examinations and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your kid with protective 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 adult molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of dental caries by up to 80%. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another great tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your kid’s teeth become more susceptible to decay. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using high-fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Lincoln.

Many people would prefer to have a whiter smile. When you stroll down the aisles of any grocery store, you see numerous products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried any of these, you know that they almost always provide lackluster results. However, professional tooth bleaching can actually provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Lincoln, NE that accepts patients without dental insurance, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Lincoln dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment 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 go with whitening at home, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe whitening solution. You will wear these for a few hours each day for about 2 weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a whiter and brighter smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Lincoln dentist that takes patients without dental insurance, we can help you find a great one.

This helps prevent tooth decays from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more expensive procedures at a later time. If you need a a dentist in Lincoln, NE that accepts uninsured individuals we can help you find a great office.

Once your cleaning is completed, your Lincoln dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your appointment, the dentist will thoroughly look at your oral cavity to identify any potential complications. If they find anything amiss, they can suggest the proper treatment. The Lincoln practice we set you up with will offer a myriad of services to address a variety of dental conditions.

The beauty of nature is an important part of Nebraska’s identity. For instance, the Nebraska National Forest, which covers 141,159 acres, is the largest hand-planted forest in the United States. The state also holds the country’s largest indoor rainforest, found at Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium, as well as more miles of river and more underground water reserves than any other state in America. In addition to the beauty around them, Nebraska’s population of over 1.9 million people also emphasize nurturing their families and community, and when it comes to maintaining healthy, beautiful smiles, Doctors Network can make it much less costly. As part of Doctors Network, dentists across Nebraska can now offer patients direct dental plans that provide significant savings on every aspect of dental care, from routine prevention to expert smile enhancement and restoration.

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.
