Custom devices to hold space for permanent teeth when baby teeth are lost early.
Looking for space maintainers in Westminster, CO? At Rodeo Dental Westminster, our experienced dental team provides space maintainers services for patients of all ages — from toddlers to seniors. We accept most insurance plans, Medicaid, and CHIP, and offer flexible payment options for families without coverage.
Health First Colorado eligibility lookup at check-in
Front desk pulls your child's Health First Colorado or CHP+ eligibility through DentaQuest or DHMP before you're seated, so there's no surprise about what today's visit covers. If the ID card is outdated we'll re-verify against the state portal right there instead of rescheduling you.

Spanish-English handoff from front desk to chair
Whichever language you check in with, the same language follows you to the hygiene chair and to checkout with Natalie or Angelica. Parents never have to translate clinical instructions for their own child mid-appointment.
3
Sibling-stacked scheduling on the Federal Blvd lot
We book brothers and sisters into adjacent chairs in the same time block so one parent isn't waiting in the lobby for two hours. The surface lot out front means you can load both kids back into the carseat in one trip.

Why Space Maintainers For Kids Matters — Westminster
Healthy habits start young. Kids who see dentists regularly have fewer problems as adults.
✓
Small cavities in primary teeth move through thin kid enamel fast and can reach the nerve before a parent ever sees a hole — catching them at a checkup means a filling instead of a pulpotomy or crown.
✓
Untreated decay in a baby tooth can abscess and damage the permanent tooth still forming underneath it, which is a problem no filling later can undo.
✓
Crowding, crossbite, and early loss of primary teeth are easiest and cheapest to intervene on between ages 6 and 9 — waiting until middle school usually means a longer, more expensive orthodontic plan.

What's Included in Your Space Maintainers — Westminster
Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Westminster, CO for space maintainers:
1.
Knee-to-knee exam for under-threes
For toddlers, parent and dentist sit knees-together with the child's head in the dentist's lap so the visual exam, fluoride varnish, and tooth count happen in under two minutes without a papoose.
2.
Bitewing radiographs with pediatric sensors
Child-sized digital sensors and lead-lined bibs capture posterior bitewings at the lowest diagnostic dose so interproximal decay between molars is caught before it's visible to the eye.
3.
Prophy paste polish and fluoride varnish
Hygienist polishes with flavored prophy paste the child picks themselves, then applies 5% sodium fluoride varnish to erupted surfaces to remineralize early white-spot lesions.
4.
Resin-based sealants on first permanent molars
As soon as the 6-year molars erupt, we etch, rinse, dry, and flow a light-cured resin sealant into the occlusal pits and fissures where kid toothbrushes can't reach.
5.
Stainless steel crown for broken-down primary molars
When a baby molar has decay too extensive for a composite filling, a pre-formed stainless steel crown is seated the same visit to hold space until the permanent tooth comes in.
6.
Phase I ortho screening on the panoramic
At the age-7 checkup Dr. Schuurmans reviews the panoramic for crowding, ectopic eruption, and crossbite and flags whether a Phase I consult with our in-house ortho team is warranted.

Frequently Asked Questions About Space Maintainers
Where exactly is the Westminster kids' office and where do we park?
We're at 10343 Federal Blvd, Westminster, CO 80260, on the east side of Federal between 103rd and 104th. There's a dedicated surface lot right in front of the building, so you can pull up with a carseat or double stroller without street parking.
Do you take Health First Colorado (Medicaid) and CHP+ for my kids?
Yes — we see kids on Health First Colorado, CHP+, DentaQuest, and DHMP every day, and our front desk verifies eligibility before you sit down. If the adult in the family is uninsured, we'll walk you through self-pay options for the grown-up visit separately.
Can you see my child on a Saturday?
Yes. We're open Saturdays 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, which is usually the easiest slot for parents who work weekdays. Weekday hours are 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday, and we're closed Sundays.
My kid freaks out at the dentist — can you still see them?
Yes, that's most of what we do here. Call (303) 993-4848 and tell the front desk it's a first visit or a nervous kid — we'll schedule extra chair time, start with a "counting teeth" ride in the chair, and only move to cleaning once your child is ready.

What makes our Westminster office unique for space maintainers
Space Maintainers for Westminster Families
Our Westminster office sits on Federal Boulevard just north of 104th Avenue, a short drive from Legacy Ridge, Countryside, and the Shaw Heights neighborhoods that feed into Adams 12 and Westminster Public Schools. Families from Thornton, Northglenn, and unincorporated Adams County reach us easily off US-36 or the Federal exit from I-76, and RTD's Route 31 stops within walking distance for parents riding transit with a stroller.
Federal Boulevard between 92nd and 120th is one of the most bilingual corridors in the north metro, and a large share of the kids we see here are covered by Colorado Medicaid (Health First Colorado) or CHP+ through their school. We know the paperwork, the ID cards, and the calls to DentaQuest and DHMP — parents don't have to translate anything or explain their plan twice to get their child into a chair.
