Dental Implant Dentistry In Lafayette & Boulder, CO
Do you worry about your smile because of a missing tooth? Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth, thanks to advances in implant dentistry. We use restorations with materials that look and act like tooth enamel, so the dental implant blends in beautifully with your natural teeth.
In a few visits to our Lafayette, CO dental office, you can have a dental implant placed and restored. The process includes the placement of a titanium post in the jawbone to provide an anchor for the replacement tooth.
This post encourages bone growth, which gives strength and stability to the dental implant. This option helps your replacement look and act like a natural tooth.

Over the past 5 months I've visited Boulder County Smiles seeking relief for severe migraine pain related to TMJ, and my experience is outstanding. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the kindness and friendliness of the staff. They create a warm, welcoming environment that immediately puts you at ease, making you feel valued and comfortable.
Dr. West and his team go above and beyond to ensure a positive experience. They approach dental care with empathy and without any hint of shame, which is a breath of fresh air! Dr. West took the time to listen carefully to my concerns and crafted a personalized treatment plan specifically tailored to my needs, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.
The combination of Invisalign and Botox has been incredibly effective in managing my TMJ-related migraines, and I genuinely appreciate the thoughtful and individualized care I receive. If you're looking for a dental practice that treats you as a whole person and not just a patient, I highly recommend Boulder County Smiles. Their expertise and compassionate approach have made a significant difference in my quality of life. Thank you Dr. West & team!!
