Dental Examination
Occlusion (also simply known as the “bite”) is the way your top and bottom teeth fit together when you close your mouth. Your occlusion can be affected by injuries, tooth loss, and eating habits, as well as cosmetic or restorative dental work. If your occlusion is off-balance, it can result in teeth grinding, chronic headaches, or TMJ disorder. The dentist will evaluate your occlusion during your regular dental exam.

Dental Examination
Occlusion (also simply known as the “bite”) is the way your top and bottom teeth fit together when you close your mouth. Your occlusion can be affected by injuries, tooth loss, and eating habits, as well as cosmetic or restorative dental work. If your occlusion is off-balance, it can result in teeth grinding, chronic headaches, or TMJ disorder. The dentist will evaluate your occlusion during your regular dental exam.
X-rays
It is standard practice for dentists to order X-Rays for each patient. However, some people hesitate to consent to dental X-Rays in Colorado Springs, whether because they want their appointment to go as quickly as possible, they are concerned about radiation, or for other reasons. But you can be sure that X-Rays are safe —
Oral Cancer Screening
Early detection and treatment are absolutely essential to overcoming oral cancer, but many patients aren’t diagnosed until the disease becomes advanced because its early symptoms are very easy to miss. That’s why we perform a complete oral cancer screening during every routine checkup. We’ll examine your mouth and the surrounding areas for any suspicious growths or sores, and if we find anything suspicious, we can help you quickly arrange a biopsy.

Teeth Cleaning
After scaling & root planing is completed, a patient will receive a special kind of dental cleaning at their regular appointments called “periodontal maintenance,” which places its focus largely on cleansing the soft tissues in the mouth to eliminate harmful bacteria.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatments also help in the fight against decay. Fluoride is a mineral that has been proven to strengthen tooth enamel. In fact, fluoride is commonly added to drinking water to ensure that the general public ingests enough of this helpful mineral. With the popularity of bottled water, however, you and your children may not be ingesting enough fluoride. For children especially, this can be a threat to their oral health. That’s why our team regularly offers fluoride treatments to help kids enjoy strong teeth and happy smiles for years to come.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a clear or white plastic liquid that is "painted" onto your children's permanent molars. Sealants are most appropriate for these teeth because they are naturally more grooved and pitted. Therefore, molars are more susceptible to the tooth decay that can result from trapped food particles. Children are less likely to carefully brush these teeth, making them even more prone to dental problems. But with dental sealants, your children’s teeth have a physical barrier to help them battle decay-causing bacteria.

Fillings
Resin Composite
Cosmetic dental bonding fills in unsightly gaps, chips and more. It uses a composite resin that’s customized to blend in with the same color as your teeth. The resin is activated, hardened with a specialized light, and contoured to your liking.
Veneers
The process is simple. You'll visit Anderson Family Dental for an initial consultation, during which we'll discuss your goals and figure out exactly how we can use porcelain veneers to get you from where you are to where you want to be, smile-wise. If you decide that porcelain veneers are the right solution for your pearly whites, we’ll prepare your teeth and take impressions to be sent to the dental lab where your veneers will be custom created. They’ll be made to look like natural teeth; the shade, shape, and size are all customized to fit your individual case. The dental lab will then complete the veneers, and when they arrive back at our office, we’ll invite you in so that we can bond them to the front of your teeth.
Crowns
Your time is valuable. Balancing work and family responsibilities leaves very little time, if any, to get the dental care you need. To accommodate the needs of his busiest patients, Dr. Anderson is constantly seeking new technologies to ensure that you get the treatment you need to stay healthy while spending as little time as possible in the dental chair. That’s why he offers CEREC one-visit dental crowns.
Bridges
If you break a tooth, experience extensive decay, require root canal therapy, or need to have teeth extracted, you may be in need of crown and bridge services from Anderson Family Dental in Colorado Springs, CO. Because Dr. Anderson has extensively trained in aesthetic dental techniques, we can provide you with crowns and bridges that are truly natural-looking and will improve the look of your damaged smile.
Dental Bonding
A smile that is full of chipped or crooked teeth can leave a person very embarrassed about their self-image. When you meet someone for the first time, what’s the first thing you notice about them? Is it their eyes? Hair? Most often, it’s their teeth. An attractive smile can be very beneficial in your personal and work relationships. A couple ways we can get you a beautiful smile is by using cosmetic dental bonding and porcelain veneers.
Restorative Dentistry
Despite your best efforts at home with a strict hygiene regimen of daily brushing and flossing, and our best efforts in the office—Anderson Family Dental has been named a Top Dentist in the area by Colorado Springs Style Magazine for several years in a row—there may come a time when you need restorative dentistry. Our office is capable of handling just about any restorative care you need. From cavities to missing teeth, you can depend on Anderson Family Dental to have the restorative treatment you need.

Root Canal Treatment
Most people have heard of root canal therapy, but few know what this procedure is used to treat or exactly how it works. You may be fearful of root canal therapy, but it’s actually a relatively simple procedure, and we can make the process far more comfortable than you’ve ever imagined. In the end, root canal therapy is nothing to be afraid of; instead, this procedure from Anderson Family Dental in Colorado Springs can save a tooth that otherwise would have to be extracted, helping you avoid the time and expense of securing a replacement.

Deep Cleaning
Does develop gum disease, we’re more than ready to handle it! Using a treatment called scaling & root planing (also known as a deep cleaning), we can remove harmful bacteria directly from the gum line and lower a patient’s risk for future infections. This is done by gently smoothing the roots of the teeth, making plaque less likely to accumulate on them.

Dentures
Dentures are prosthetic teeth attached to a gum-colored base, and they provide a natural-looking, stable solution for replacing several or a whole row of missing teeth. Here at Anderson Family Dental, we provide full and partial dentures in Colorado Springs.

Dental Implants
Replacing missing teeth is important for your oral health, your overall health, and your appearance. While modern dentistry offers several ways to fill in the gaps and restore suffering smiles, many professionals agree that dental implants are the best method for replacing missing teeth. Dr. Erick T. Anderson is a skilled, experienced implant dentist who would be happy to help you discover whether this remarkable treatment is right for you.

Teeth Whitening
Dull, yellow, or discolored teeth can have a negative impact on your self-confidence, and they can also affect the impressions you make on other people. Sure, everyone's teeth are going to discolor over time, but with teeth whitening from Anderson Family Dental, you can restore lost confidence and make great impressions everywhere you go. Our Colorado Springs practice features in-office whitening with Zoom!, a popular system for quick whitening in a single visit.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry services are available for any of our patients who are ready to start showing off a beautiful smile. Unlike other dentistry services like restorative and preventive care, cosmetic dentistry focuses on the appearance of your teeth as opposed to functionality. Patients that have struggled with damaged, decayed or misshaped teeth for all of their lives can now find effective solutions at our office in Colorado Springs, CO. Dr. Anderson can help you achieve confident teeth that look simply beautiful.
General Dentistry
The cornerstone of Anderson Family Dental is, of course, the family. To ensure that you have healthy teeth and gums, we encourage you and the rest of your family to schedule dental checkups twice each year. With this regularity, we can spot concerns sooner rather than later and treat problems before they become more serious. Of course, you can count on receiving a thorough cleaning of your teeth, careful evaluation of your gum health, and an in-depth examination for signs of decay. We will also examine your mouth for the early signs of oral cancer, which is a disease that is highly treatable and curable with early detection. In addition, we offer the following general dentistry services...
