Grand Junction Family Dentist
High-quality dental care for the whole family
All Ages Welcome!
Family schedules are often packed full of events, obligations, and extracurriculars. But regular dental exams and preventive treatment need to be part of your family’s routine, too! We make it easy.
At Jacobson Family Dental, we’re a family dental practice that’s trained to work with both adults and children. Whether you need a local family dentist for regular cleanings and exams, fixing dental issues, or restoring your smile, you and your loved ones are in good hands.
Benefits of regular family dental visits
- Clean teeth and healthy gums
- Dental problems caught before they become serious
- A boost in overall health
- Building great dental care habits from a young age
When should you make your child’s first dentist appointment? We recommend booking your child for their first visit by 12 months of age, or within 6 months of the first tooth coming in — whichever comes first.
Dental care at home is just as important
Dental issues inevitably pop up, and they can cause a lot of stress — especially for young ones. It’s important to encourage your family to maintain their oral health at home to avoid dental health problems like gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss.
Some healthy at-home oral health practices for the whole family include:
- Brushing teeth twice daily
- Flossing daily
- Choosing healthy meals to strengthen teeth and improve overall health
- Avoiding sugary food and drinks as much as possible

FAQ about family dentistry
Do you see both children and adults?
Yes. We provide care for patients of all ages, from toddlers and teens to adults and seniors. Our team is trained to tailor treatment based on each patient’s age, comfort level, and dental needs.
When should my child first visit the dentist?
We recommend scheduling your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday or within 6 months of their first tooth coming in. Early visits help build positive dental habits and allow us to monitor healthy development.
Can my whole family be seen on the same day?
Absolutely. We offer family scheduling to make dental visits more convenient for busy households. Our team will do their best to book multiple family members on the same day.
What happens during a family dental visit?
Visits typically include a gentle exam, professional cleaning, and any necessary x-rays. Our Grand Junction family dentist will review your oral health, discuss findings, and recommend treatment options if needed.
Is dental x-ray imaging safe for children?
Yes. We use modern digital x-rays that limit radiation exposure and only recommend them when clinically necessary to monitor oral health and development.
What if someone in my family feels anxious about the dentist?
Don’t worry, we understand that dental anxiety is very common, especially for children. Our friendly team takes extra time to explain each step, move at a comfortable pace, and create a calm, stress-free experience for every visit.
