Dental Examination
We often think of the dentist as someone we only visit whenever absolutely necessary. However, it is advised you visit your dentist every 6 months for a dental exam and cleaning. Dental cleanings should be considered a necessary aspect of good oral hygiene and should not be reserved for when issues arise in the mouth. In fact, they are a preventative measure, advised to help avoid the formation of cavities and other serious dental issues.

Dental Examination
We often think of the dentist as someone we only visit whenever absolutely necessary. However, it is advised you visit your dentist every 6 months for a dental exam and cleaning. Dental cleanings should be considered a necessary aspect of good oral hygiene and should not be reserved for when issues arise in the mouth. In fact, they are a preventative measure, advised to help avoid the formation of cavities and other serious dental issues.
X-rays
Yes, dental X-rays are an essential diagnostic tool. Your dentist uses these X-rays to detect serious disease processes and pathologies. At our dental office in Longmont, we employ an advanced digital dental imaging system that provides up to 80% less radiation than traditional X-rays. If you are concerned about the effects on your body, speak with your dentist.
Oral Cancer Screening

Teeth Cleaning
Teeth Cleaning – Typically this aspect of the visit is done to ensure your teeth are free of plaque and build-up. Your teeth will be cleaned using special tools to enhance the cleaning process. This ensures all the hard to reach areas we often miss are cleaned out adequately.
Fluoride Treatment
After your x-rays, a dental hygienist will begin the dental cleaning. During the dental cleaning, your teeth will be brushed, flossed, polished and there is the possibility that a fluoride treatment will be administered. During this cleaning, special tools will be used to help remove plaque and build-up on and between the teeth that brushing and flossing cannot effectively remove. If you feel apprehensive about receiving a cleaning, just let our Longmont dental staff know! They are specially trained to make patients more comfortable during their visits.

Fillings
Resin Composite
If you have experienced a cavity or are prone to tooth deterioration, you may have needed a filling at one time or another. In the past, filings were made with metal and stand out among your surrounding teeth. However, advancements in technology have developed ways to apply fillings with a tooth-colored look, or composite resins.
Veneers
We are all looking for ways to enhance our smiles, which can often come at a high price and require much time spent in the dentist chair. Luckily, this is not the case with dental Lumineers, which are now offered at your Longmont dental office. Lumineers are an alternative to traditional veneers, offering you the same beautiful smile without requiring you to shave down your natural teeth. This achieved by covering your teeth with a thin tooth-like structure applied using a dental adhesive.
Crowns
It is common for people to experience damage to the enamel of their teeth at some point in their life. This can be from poor oral hygiene, particular foods, and drinks, smoking, or simply everyday wear. When there is significant decay or damage to the surface of a tooth, the tooth can be reduced and a custom-made tooth bonded to its surface. This artificial tooth is called a dental crown. Crowns are typically used to anchor bridges (structures that replace missing teeth).
Bridges
Many people suffer their entire life with deformed or missing teeth, struggling with their confidence and even in performing everyday tasks such as eating or talking. Today, technology has advanced so much that this should no longer be an issue. Dentists, like Dr. Knechtel at our Longmont dental office, have discovered ways to restore your natural smile with simple procedures. Two very common procedures are dental crowns and bridges.

Root Canal Treatment
When you first discover you may be in need of root canal therapy, or “endodontic treatment”, you may have a few questions. Root canal therapy is a procedure that strives to repair and save a badly infected tooth. There are multiple reasons why someone may find themselves needing root canal therapy, such as deep decay or a crack/ chip in the tooth. The best way to prevent root canal therapy is by scheduling regular visits with your Longmont dentist to detect dental issues early on and avoid requiring this procedure altogether.

Dentures
Sometimes we don’t notice or realize when people have had dental work done. This can be due to advancements in dental treatments and how they can look much more natural. Over time, our teeth naturally encounter a lot of wear from drinking, eating, physical activity, and, simply, bad habits. While our teeth encounter a lot, there are dental appliances that can be used to replace missing teeth for the purpose of comfort, functionality, and confidence. One of the easiest fixes for a patient who is missing multiple teeth is the application of dentures.

Dental Implants
At Longmont Dental, we are thrilled that you are reading up on dental implants and that you are considering our team for your oral care. Led by Dr. Kurt W. Knechtel, DMD, we strive to be a true “dental home” for patients and their families from Longmont and throughout the Boulder, Colorado, area.

Orthodontics
Dr. Knechtel has been practicing dentistry for 26 years. He received his degree at Oregon Health Science University in 1995. After college, this former Longmont High School graduate, returned home to start his practice. Dr. Knechtel likes to remain on the cutting edge of dentistry and continually looks for ways to improve the patient experience. He has added to his credentials by getting extra training in implant placement and orthodontics in addition to his original degree.
Braces
There are many adults who spend their lives trying to cover their mouths when they laugh, smile or talk due to a crooked or dull smile. If you are someone who is self-conscious of your smile and stuck between not wanting to wear braces but also concerned about ways to improve your smile, this teeth straightening method may be right for you. One way to achieve that perfectly aligned smile quickly is with Six Month Smiles clear braces for adults, available at your Longmont dental clinic.

Teeth Whitening
As we age our teeth undergo a lot of wear. This may come in the form of crack, cavities, and infections. However, sometimes the wear is more cosmetic, resulting in dulling or yellowing of teeth, which can be unpleasant for patients. Drinks, certain foods, and general aging can all cause teeth to lose their glow, which is why teeth whitening treatments have become so popular over the years.
Cosmetic Dentistry
The Health Insurance Privacy and Portability Act (HIPAA) is a federal law designed to protect your personal health information. Kurt W. Knechtel, DMD Family and Cosmetic Dentistry is HIPAA compliant. We have provided a printable version of our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices and Acknowledgement forms. For new patients, please print, sign and bring the Acknowledgement form to your first visit.
