WHO WE ARE

South Denver has trusted this practice since the late 1970s, when Dr. Hindman opened the doors and built a reputation the old-fashioned way: one family at a time. In 2000, Dr. Blanchard and Dr. Richardson purchased the practice and carried that reputation forward.

We’re a patient-focused practice committed to high-quality care in a welcoming, professional environment. Our team values collaboration, integrity, and exceptional customer service. We believe in quality dental care for families, without over-treating or selling unnecessary dentistry.
