Dental Alternative Services

Dental Alternative Services provides dental care on 1555 Main St A2 in Windsor, Colorado. 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 Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Professional teeth whitening uses a peroxide-based gel, applied under supervision at a strength stronger than anything sold over the counter, to lift years of staining from coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco. It works on natural enamel only — existing crowns, veneers, and fillings keep whatever shade they were made in.

Orthodontic treatment straightens teeth and corrects bite problems using braces, clear aligners, or similar appliances over a period that commonly runs from about a year to several years depending on the case. It is offered to both children, where early evaluation can catch developing issues, and adults at any age.

A sealant is a thin protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where the deep grooves collect plaque and food that brushing struggles to reach. It is most often applied to children's permanent molars shortly after they come through, though adults can benefit too.

Periodontal surgery treats gum disease that has not resolved with non-surgical cleaning — addressing deep pockets, bone loss, or recession around the teeth. It is carried out under local anaesthetic, with recovery typically settling within one to two weeks.

Oral cancer screening is a standard part of a routine dental checkup — a visual and physical examination of the soft tissues looking for sores, lumps, or patches that have not healed. Early detection is the main reason regular attendance matters even when nothing seems wrong.

Bruxism is grinding or clenching the teeth, often during sleep without realising it, showing up as worn or flattened teeth, jaw soreness on waking, and headaches. A custom night guard is the standard first treatment. You can reach Dental Alternative Services through this page to ask a question, check current availability, or request an appointment.
