Dental FAQs From Your Dentist in Loveland, CO

Real Answers to Your Most Common Dental Questions

You have questions, and we have answers. At Loveland Lakes Family Dentistry, we know that feeling informed about your dental care makes every visit easier and less stressful. Whether you are a new patient or have been coming to see us for years, this dental FAQs page is here to give you the clear, honest information you deserve. Dr. Jeff Marlor and our team are always happy to talk through your concerns, but this is a great place to start.

How Often Should I Schedule a Dental Cleaning?

For most patients, a cleaning every six months is the gold standard. Regular dental cleanings allow our team to remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing cannot fully address on their own. They also give us the chance to spot small issues early before they become bigger, more costly problems.

If you have a history of gum disease or are currently working through periodontal treatment, we may recommend more frequent visits, such as every three to four months. We will always be upfront with you about what your smile needs and why.

What Insurance Does Loveland Lakes Family Dentistry Accept?

We are in-network with Delta Dental and will happily bill most other insurance plans on your behalf. The one exception is Medicaid. If you are unsure whether we work with your plan, give us a call and our team will help you sort it out before your appointment. We also offer flexible payment options including Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, CareCredit, and in-house financing, so cost does not have to stand between you and the care you need.

Is Dental Care Available in Spanish?

Yes! Our team is proud to offer care in both English and Spanish. We want every patient in our Loveland community to feel genuinely welcome and understood. Communication is a big part of great dental care, and we will always make sure you know exactly what is happening with your treatment.

What Should I Expect as a New Patient?

Your first visit with us typically includes a comprehensive exam, digital X-rays, and a full dental cleaning if no further treatment is needed right away. We take time to review your health history, talk through any concerns you have, and give you an honest picture of where your oral health stands. We also use intraoral camera technology so you can see exactly what we see. No guessing, no surprises. Just clear information so you can make confident decisions about your care.

Do You Offer Teeth Whitening?

We do! We offer Zoom Whitening for just $549. Zoom is one of the most trusted professional whitening treatments available and can lighten your smile by several shades in a single appointment. If you have been thinking about brightening your smile, this is a great option to ask about at your next visit.

What Is Invisalign, and Am I a Candidate?

Invisalign is a clear aligner system that gradually shifts your teeth into alignment without traditional metal braces. The aligners are removable, nearly invisible, and much more comfortable for most patients. Whether Invisalign is right for you depends on the type and degree of misalignment you have. Dr. Marlor can evaluate your smile and walk you through your options during a consultation.

Does Your Office See Children?

Absolutely. We offer pediatric services including dental sealants and fluoride treatments designed to protect young smiles as they grow. We believe that starting good dental habits early makes a lasting difference, and we love helping kids feel comfortable at the dentist.

What If I Have Dental Anxiety?

You are not alone. Many of our patients feel nervous about dental visits, and our whole team is trained to make your experience as calm and comfortable as possible. We take things at your pace, explain what we are doing as we go, and never make you feel rushed or dismissed. If anxiety has kept you from getting the care you need, please reach out. We will work with you.
