Routine Cleanings & Dental Exams

Once Dr. Kaines or Dr. Cosper has carefully examined your mouth they will discuss your treatment needs. Spring Creek Dental of Fort Collins is committed to educating you about your health care options and working together to meet your individual needs and goals. Often times this involves pictures and models to help you learn various procedures that are applicable to your treatment plan. Our front desk is also excellent at offering you help with the financial aspects of treatment, both by explaining approximate costs at each appointment, and going above and beyond to look into your individual insurance plan and do our best to provide you with a close estimate of what your insurance will pay. The team at Spring Creek Dental is here for your health and we want you involved in the process.


Your initial Fort Collins dental exam with Spring Creek Dental will typically last about one hour and include the following:


1) Examination of Diagnostic X-Rays (Radiographs)

Essential for detection of decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss. X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions.


2) Oral Cancer Screening

Your Fort Collins dentist will check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.


3) Gum Disease Evaluation

Your Fort Collins dentist will check the gums and bone around the teeth for any signs of periodontal disease.


4) Examination of Tooth Decay

All tooth surfaces will be checked for decay with special dental instruments.


5) Examination of Existing Dental Restorations

Your Fort Collins dentist will check current fillings, crowns, etc.

Hygiene Dental Cleaning

Professional Teeth Cleaning

Professional dental cleanings are performed by our Registered dental Hygienists.

Spring Creek Dental has three excellent and gentle dental hygienists.

Dental Plaque

Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth. It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva. The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease!

Plaque, Tartar & Calculus

Plaque that is not removed with home care will harden into a tenacious substance called calculus and attach to your teeth compromising your ideal health. We at Spring Creek Dental believe in the value of ultrasonic scalers (see video) to better remove these harmful deposits.

Dental Polishing

Remove stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.
