Highlands Ranch and Denver Dentists

Dr. Sarah Parsons has joined the Denver dental practice of Dr. James DeLapp and Dr. H. Candace DeLapp.  Dr. Parsons graduated from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine in June 2010.  Dr. Parsons is currently accepting new patients at our Highlands Ranch and Denver dental office. Dr Parsons recently completed 48 hours of training for “minimal sedation”permit issued from the Colorado State Board of Dental Examiners.  The State of Colorado requires only 16 hours and her training exceeded the minimum standard by over three times.  Call our Denver dental office and make an appointment today to see if sedation dentistry is for you.

Denver and Highlands Ranch dentists Dr. James DeLapp and Dr. H. Candace DeLapp have attended or taught  several hundreds of  continuing education courses so far this year. The doctors attended the 26th Annual Scientific Session the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD).  Other recent courses included additional courses in cosmetic dentistry, root canals, Advanced Cardiac life Support and “Minimal” and “Moderate Sedation” course work. All of these courses were fantastic. One of our favorite course was taught by Corky Wilhite DDS.  Transitional bonding refers to a concept in cosmetic dentistry where a semi-final or transitional solution if presented to the patient. Porcelain Dental Veneers are the ultimate indental esthetic in Denver but composite direct veneers are an alternative to the porcelain dental veneer solution. The advantage of this transitional therapy is costs are approximately 1/2 of laboratory fabricated porcelain dental veneers. In time… the patient may wish to “transition ” into  porcelain vereers. In addition Dr. James DeLapp attended a 10 day Moderate Sedation course at the University of Southern California School of Dentistry from April to July. He will apply with the State Board for  a Moderate Dental Sedation permit. Currently all three doctors have a Minimal Dental Sedation permit from the State Board.

Digital dental x-rays(radiographs) are becoming the standard of care in dentistry.  Our Highlands Ranch dentists Dr. James DeLapp and Dr. H. Candace DeLapp have had digital radiography for the past ten (10) years.  One of the most significant benefits is the reduction in the amount of radiation the patient(and staff) experiences. It therefore also is less exposure for their staff. One of the many “other” benefits is the ability to send the dental digital image over the Internet. These can be viewed by insurance companies or specialist offering a second opinion.
