About Colorado Healthy Smiles
Colorado Healthy Smiles is a dental practice on Empire Road in Lafayette, Colorado. A dental implant replaces a missing tooth at the root, not just the crown — a small titanium post is placed in the jaw bone and, once it has integrated over a period of months, a replacement tooth is attached to it. It is generally the most durable option for a single missing tooth or several.
Clear aligners straighten teeth through a series of custom, removable trays, each worn for one to two weeks before moving to the next in the sequence. They suit mild to moderate crowding and spacing well, and are worn roughly twenty to twenty-two hours a day for treatment to stay on schedule.
Traditional braces use brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into alignment, handling complex bite corrections and significant crowding more predictably than removable alternatives. Treatment commonly runs one to three years, with a retainer worn afterward to hold the result.
A veneer is a thin custom shell bonded to the front of a tooth to change its shape, length, or colour, most often used to address chips, gaps, or discoloration that whitening alone cannot fix. Traditional veneers require a small amount of enamel to be removed, which makes the change permanent.
Cosmetic dentistry covers treatment aimed primarily at appearance — whitening, veneers, bonding, and reshaping among the more common options — for patients who are less concerned with a problem that hurts than with how their smile looks day to day. The right combination depends on what specifically you would like to change.
Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and seals the space, and allows the natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Every experience at Colorado Healthy Smiles with Dr Jackie Schafer and her staff is positive, quick, and friendly. As a patient who has experienced extreme dental anxiety, I feel confident and safe in her office. All of her staff are first-rate!
Nothing but good things to say about this place! Fast and easy scheduling from the front desk. My dental hygienist, Darby, is fantastic at managing dental anxiety and makes appointments much easier to handle.
Friendly, professional and excellent dentist.
Dr. Jackie Shafer & staff are FABULOUS!! I am terrified of dentist, but Dr. Shafer is so attentive & calming I love going in!!
Dr. Schafer and team are amazing humans and I am very thankful that I have choosen this practice as my new dental home!!!! Molly was fast to set an appointment for my dental emergency assessment and also set a possible treatment appointment to make sure that I had a secured time to fix my dental emergency. Dr. Schafer was fantastic with her overall chairside care!!! Dr. Schafer and Nicole chatted with me throughout the appointment and kept me informed of next steps in the procedure. I never felt the initial shot for numbing and even having the temp crown made was painless. I felt very included in my appointment (which can be very rare when you see the dentist). The entire team is kind, thoughtful, encouraging and really make you feel at home! Thank you Colorado Healthy Smiles team! I am glad that I found you all!
I recently stopped in for a procedure. Everything went well and my issue has been resolved. The office manager Molly is personable and attentive. Dr. Schafer and her assistant are both great. Dr. Schafer had so much patience and is quick. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!
Great first experience! I moved to Westminster from Boulder a couple years ago and was really nervous to look for a new dental office that was closer to me, so I just kept putting it off. I have a little bit of anxiety about dentist appointments due to pain in one area of my gums/teeth and I get really nervous that they are going to hurt me. I eventually came across Colorado Healthy Smiles and decided to give them a try. I just went in for a routine cleaning and everything went great. They were even super proactive and used a topical numbing ointment to stave off any pain during the cleaning, at no extra charge. That was a huge help! Overall, all of the staff were very kind and gentle and made it a comfortable experience for this nervous nellie. Would highly recommend them for anyone, but especially for people with dental anxiety. : )
I have had a number of dentists over the years, and I can say Dr. Schafer is clearly the best dentist that has ever treated me. Extraordinary ability and skill set that provides her patience with exceptional and superior care. Additionally, her highly trained staff are dedicated to making the experience a very comfortable and positive one. All I can say, if you are putting off seeing a dentist it is time to make an appointment with Dr. Schafer.
