About Smiles in the Rockies
A pediatric dentist who decided to meet kids where they already are — at school.

The Founder
Dr. Chris Frankmore
Doctor of Dental Surgery · Pediatric Dentistry
Dr. Frankmore is a pediatric dentist — meaning his entire practice revolves around children's teeth. Not adults. Not general dentistry. Kids.
He founded Smiles in the Rockies after seeing firsthand how many Colorado children were falling through the cracks — families who couldn't take time off work, couldn't arrange transportation, or didn't know their child had a problem developing.
His solution: bring the pediatric dentist to the school. His team provides thorough screenings on campus, catching cavities, alignment issues, and early signs of gum disease — often before parents or kids even notice something's wrong.
