Services

General Dentistry

Our general dentistry services focus on preventive care, including cleanings, exams, and gum disease treatment. We use advanced tools like OralID for oral cancer screening and laser therapy for gum health. Patients benefit from early detection of systemic issues linked to oral health, such as diabetes and heart disease. Our approach ensures long-term wellness through regular check-ups and personalized hygiene plans.

Cosmetic Dentistry

We offer veneers, teeth whitening, and Invisalign to improve smile aesthetics. Our LVI-trained dentists create natural-looking results, addressing gaps, stains, and misalignment. Cosmetic procedures also enhance oral function, reducing risks like uneven wear. Patients gain confidence with tailored treatments that blend beauty and health, using mercury-free materials for safety and durability.

Dental Implants

Dental implants restore missing teeth with titanium posts that mimic natural roots. Dr. Kawuloks expertise ensures secure, long-lasting solutions for single or full-arch replacements. Implants preserve jawbone health and improve bite function. We provide full-mouth reconstructions and hybrid prosthetics, offering stability and comfort comparable to natural teeth.

TMJ Treatment

Our physiologic approach to TMJ disorders includes custom orthotics and muscle therapy. Advanced diagnostics assess joint and muscle function, guiding non-invasive treatments. Patients experience relief from migraines, jaw pain, and sleep apnea through tailored appliances and bite adjustments, improving quality of life without surgery.

Restorative Dentistry

Restorative services include crowns, bridges, and fillings to repair damaged teeth. Same-day crowns use CEREC technology for convenience. We prioritize preserving natural teeth while addressing decay or cracks. Restorations enhance both function and appearance, preventing further oral health complications with durable, aesthetic materials.

If there is a more professional, higher quality dental office in Boulder County, I would be shocked! Both dentists and hygienists take my comfort and concerns seriously and the cleanings, fillings and crowns I've required over the years have been painless and lasted longer than similar procedures at other offices I've experienced in my (now) long life. I can say nothing more than thank you, Whole Family Dentistry!
