Frequently asked questions
The questions patients ask us most
Straight answers to what our front desk hears on the phone every day.
New patients
Is Breckenridge Family Dental accepting new patients?
Yes. New patients book by phone. Call (970) 453-4585 and our front desk will find a time that works for you.
Can I book online?
Not at the moment. All appointments, including new patient visits, are booked by phone at (970) 453-4585.
Do you see tourists and out-of-town visitors?
Yes. We treat locals, second-home owners and visitors. We do our best to see visitors the same day when an appointment is available.
What languages do you speak?
Care at the practice is provided in English.
Location
Did Breckenridge Family Dental move?
Yes. In 2021 we moved from our previous location near City Market to our own standalone office in a beautiful historic building at 108 N Ridge St, Breckenridge.
Insurance and payment
Are you in-network with my dental insurance?
We are a non-contracted (out-of-network) provider with all dental insurance plans, but we work with most major insurances and will submit claims for you.
Can I still use my insurance?
Often, yes. If your plan includes out-of-network benefits, you can use them here, and we will submit the claim for you. Your insurance company can tell you your exact out-of-network coverage.
Do you offer an in-house membership plan?
Yes. We offer adult, children and periodontal maintenance membership plans for patients without insurance. Plans cover routine exams, cleanings and x-rays and include savings on other treatment. Call the office and we will help you choose the right tier.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We work with Cherry and CareCredit. Cherry is our preferred financing partner.
Treatment
Do you do implants in the office?
Yes. We both place and restore dental implants in-house, including All-on-4 style full-arch implants, and we plan them with CBCT 3D imaging.
Do you offer sedation dentistry?
Yes. We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation, and IV sedation. IV sedation is provided by a visiting certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA) or anesthesiologist.
Do you offer Invisalign?
Yes. Breckenridge Family Dental is an Invisalign Gold provider.
Do you offer Botox?
Yes. Both of our dentists provide Botox for cosmetic reasons and for therapeutic reasons such as TMJ pain, teeth grinding and headaches.
Do you make crowns in the office?
Yes. We have an in-house dental lab with 3D printing and in-house crown fabrication.
Do you remove wisdom teeth?
No. We refer wisdom teeth removal to an oral surgeon. Root canals are sometimes referred out depending on the case, although Dr. Lindauer performs some root canals in our office.
Families
What age should my child first see the dentist?
We like to see children by age 1 or when their first tooth comes in, whichever comes first.
Emergencies
Do you see dental emergencies on weekends?
Our regular hours are Monday to Thursday, 8:20 am to 5:00 pm. Friday, Saturday and Sunday are reserved for emergencies. Call (970) 453-4585. After hours, our phone tree sends emergency calls to our Emergency Voicemail Box. We get a push alert as soon as a message is left, and we call you back. If you have a life-threatening injury, call 911 or go to the nearest hospital emergency room.
