Meet Mitch.
I have lived in the Denver area since 1996. I was born near Dallas, TX and lived there for 18 months before spending my early childhood in Southern California. I graduated from Arizona State University with a BAS in Graphic IT. My passion is the 3D world! Shortly after I graduated, I took a chance on a job to learn 3D printing at a dental lab. Instantly, I fell in love with the digital world of dentistry. The combination of an old passion and a new one is a perfect fit. Since that time, I have polished my skills on 3D printing, implant treatment planning, AOX (planning, designing and fabricating) and all temporary restoration possibilities. When I am not working, I enjoy being outdoors. As a California kid, I love the ocean but spending most of my life in Colorado, I love everything the mountains have to offer. I also am a huge sports fan (Go Dodgers and Go Cowboys!!!!) and I really love to garden every year.

Meet Tiffany.
I was born right here in Denver, and I have been in and out of the dental chair my whole life, congenitally missing #7. I finished my braces, and my dad took a job offer in North Carolina my freshmen year of high school, so I completed high school and college there and had my first dental implant placed. I was fortunate enough to play some college softball at Catawba college, then transferred to UNC Charlotte and graduated with my BS in Chemistry. Shortly after graduating I returned to Colorado and started working for a prosthodontist in Boulder just looking for work, not knowing it would one of the greatest blessings in my life. I received a world class education from Dr. Gordon Gates and will never be able to truly thank him enough. Since then, I have been a head assistant, lab tech, surgical planner, and now co-owner. I couldn't be more excited to continue to grow in this amazing industry.
​
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my whole world - my husband and 2 children. We love to camp in our trailer and get outside anyway we can. I love to fish and golf, and I try to get to the beach/east coast as often as I can.
