Doctors Network

From 1836 to 1845, Texas was its own independent nation, and it is the only state to have joined the U.S. through treaty rather than territorial annexation. Today, it is home to nearly 28 million people, making it the second most populous state (next to California) as well as the second largest (next to Alaska). Known as the Lone Star State, Texas’ independence and spirit has persevered throughout its history, and today’s Texans continue to do things their way. When it comes to dental health care, that means offering families across the state highly affordable alternatives to dental insurance through direct plans. Provided by your dentist in partnership with Doctors Network, a direct dental plan guarantees significant savings on all treatments that your dentist and oral health specialists provide, and it works whether or not you already have insurance coverage.

Doctors Network

Texans like to tackle things head on, which happens to be the best way to take care of your dental health. Being proactive with regular checkups and cleanings helps prevent dental issues from developing or growing worse. However, over 19% of people in Texas do not have insurance, which can make paying for routine dental care sometimes difficult. The good news is that Doctors Network helps families across Texas remain as proactive as possible by keeping the costs of dental health care low. Checkups and cleanings are only $25 per visit under the network’s direct dental plan. Also, the costs for treatments such as teeth-whitening, Invisalign®, tooth-colored fillings, porcelain crowns, dental implants, and more are all drastically reduced by up to 90%.

    This place is awesome. I hate going to the dentist and needles being in my mouth. Dr. Pham kindly explained everything to me, including the level of sedation and what they meant. He could tell I was nervous, but I felt so comfortable that I only needed gas for my cleaning. I’m going to be coming back for fillings in a week, and I’m not nervous at all. The staff is very caring and knowledgeable. I hadn’t been to the dentist in 35 years, but Dr. Pham and his staff made me feel very comfortable. Everyone in Hurst who hates the dentist should give this place a try.

    Making an appointment is easy, and I love that I can do it online. The entire staff, from the dentist, hygienist, to the front desk staff, are kind, easy to talk to, and knowledgeable. I love how close it is to my home, and feel very lucky to have found a great and reliable dentist in Dallas Tx. I felt comfortable from the very moment I talked to the receptionist over the phone. It’s been an enjoyable experience, and I’ve already told my friends all about it.

    Dr. Nannapaneni is the greatest doctor in Garland, Texas area. I’ve had a lot of dental work done in the past, and oral surgery too. I feel very lucky to have found Dr. Nannapaneni. He treats his patients like real people rather than just a mouth in the chair, and he takes his time with each appointment. Don’t schedule an appointment when you have a lot to do that day. He would never try to upsell procedures to you, he’s very honest, and this honesty has saved me money. He explains why he’s doing what he’s doing. The first time I came here I was immediately won over because of the comfortable atmosphere. Dr. Nannapaneni is friendly and easy to talk to. He’s really great.

What is a dental filling?

A dental filling or a tooth filling is a common dental procedure used to repair a tooth that has been damaged by tooth decay, also known as cavities or caries. This procedure involves the removal (excavation) of the decayed portion of the tooth and the replacement of the preparation with the ideal filling material. The goal of a tooth filling is to restore the function, integrity, and shape of the tooth, and to prevent further tooth decay. There are several types of filling material that can be utilized, including: 1. Amalgam (silver or metal) fillings: Amalgam fillings, AKA silver fillings, are made from an alloy of metals that include mercury, tin, silver, and copper. These fillings are very strong and durable and have been used for several years. However, they aren't as aesthetically pleasing as other types and may not be used for visible front teeth. 2. Composite (tooth colored) fillings: Composite fillings, AKA white fillings, are made of a mixture of plastic and glass. These fillings can be closely matched to the color of your teeth, making them a very aesthetically pleasing option. They are used in front teeth as well as posterior teeth (molars). 3. Gold fillings: Gold fillings are made from a mixture or alloy of gold, copper, and other precious metals. They are very durable, and long-lasting but are also more expensive than other fillings types. 4. Ceramic fillings: Ceramic fillings are made up of a mixture of ceramic materials and can be closely matched to the color of your teeth. They are comparatively expensive, but they are also strong and durable. The dental filling procedure typically begins with an examination of the diseased tooth by a dentist. They will examine the tooth and take X-rays to determine the extent of the decay. The dentist will numb the area around the tooth with local anesthetic (Novocaine). Then the dentist will use special dental tools to remove the decayed part of the tooth. Once the decay has been excavated (removed), the tooth will be cleaned and prepared for the filling material. The dentist will place the filling substance in the tooth preparation and shape it to the correct form and shape. If a composite (white) filling is used, it will be hardened with a special curing light. The dentist will then polish the filling down to ensure that it is smooth and comfortable while chewing. After the procedure, the tooth may be slightly sensitive to temperature and pressure for a number of days. This sensitivity is usually transient and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers (NSAIDs). It's crucial to follow the post-operative instructions provided by the dentist such as avoiding hard or crunchy foods for the first hour, avoiding biting on the fresh filling for a while, and generally maintaining good oral hygiene to ensure that the filling lasts a long time. To summarize, a dental filling is a dental procedure used to repair a tooth that has been damaged by caries. The procedure involves the removal of the decay and the restoration of that area with a filling material. There are multiple types of filling materials that can be used, including amalgam (silver), composite(tooth-colored), gold, and ceramic fillings. The procedure usually involves numbing the area around the tooth and using special tools to remove the decayed parts of the tooth. After the filling procedure, the tooth may be sensitive to hot or cold and pressure for a few days, but this should be temporary. Follow the post-operative instructions provided by the dentist, and if the sensitivity does not dissipate after a couple of weeks, let your dental professional know.

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.

I fell off my bike and chipped my front tooth. I was able to find and book an appointment online right away. Next time I need an appointment I'll try Doctors Network again.
