Dr. Ian Rothbauer

Dentistry is about routine and emergencies alike. Fillings, crowns, and cleanings play the long game. Beyond that, Dr. Ian Rothbauer handles implants, extractions, and the occasional urgent visit. The goal isn’t just a quick fix—it’s a plan you can trust. The street-level office sits where Vernon meets 125th, easy to spot if you’re rolling down 12502 Vernon Ave SW in Lakewood.

If you’ve put off that check-up, a gentle exam or X-ray can spot trouble before it spreads. Pediatric dentistry keeps the younger crew smiling and cavity-free. Night guards and sports mouthguards show up in the drawer when teeth need cushioning at night or on the field. Whitening treatments refresh smiles downtown when patients want a brighter lift without the downtown drive.

A quick call ahead spots an open chair. Dial (253) 582-9010 to lock in a slot or ask if they squeeze in same-day walk-ins. Heavy morning traffic on Lakewood’s main drags? Leave five extra minutes for the drive before 9 AM.

Before you head out, grab the map for the quickest route. I still use that same shortcut past the old Safeway.
