Boardwalk Dental
Boardwalk Dental is a family dental practice on Boardwalk Drive in Fort Collins, Colorado, staffed by dentists Leon C. Green, D.D.S., and Richard S. Wuerker, D.D.S. Dr. Green earned a B.S. in Chemistry at Creighton University and his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at Creighton Dental School, while Dr. Wuerker, a Colorado native, completed his undergraduate studies and his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of Colorado. Both are members of the American Dental Association and the Colorado Dental Association, and both attend continuing education classes covering new research, technology updates and dental procedures. The office handles general dentistry including exams, cosmetic fillings, crowns and bridges, root canal therapy and extractions. Cosmetic care covers veneers, professional teeth whitening and cosmetic fillings, and periodontal care covers gum treatment plus scaling and root planing, also called deep cleaning. Patients who want straighter teeth can choose between Invisalign and SureSmile clear aligners, and the practice places Nobel Biocare implants made from commercially pure titanium. Boardwalk Dental describes its facility as state-of-the-art and equipped with advanced technology and modern techniques. Dr. Green and Dr. Wuerker serve as the official dentists for the Colorado Eagles hockey team and Colorado State University Athletics in Fort Collins. The practice is a preferred provider for most major insurance companies, and a CareCredit 18 Month No-Interest program is offered for treatment such as Invisalign. Appointments can be requested online or by phone.

What insurance do you accept?
We are a preferred provider for most major insurance companies. If you have questions about your specific plan or want to confirm that we accept your provider, call the office at (970) 407-8080 and our team will help you sort out your coverage options.
What are my options for straightening my teeth?
We offer both Invisalign and SureSmile clear aligners. Each set is custom-made for your teeth from clear thermoplastic and moves them gradually into position. Aligners are worn around 20 to 22 hours a day and are removable, so you can take them out to eat and to brush and floss.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We offer an 18 Month No-Interest option through CareCredit, which was set up so orthodontic treatment such as Invisalign is workable for teenagers and adults on different budgets. Call (970) 407-8080 to hear how the program applies to your situation.
How often should I visit the dentist?
A visit every six months, or twice a year, is generally recommended, though the right frequency depends on your own circumstances. Regular exams let us check your teeth, gums and mouth and catch cavities, plaque buildup or gum disease before they become larger problems.
What cosmetic treatments do you provide?
Cosmetic care at our office includes professional teeth whitening, veneers and cosmetic fillings. Veneers are thin shells made from porcelain or composite resin that are placed over the front surface of a tooth and can address discoloration, chips, cracks, gaps and minor misalignment.
