Dr. Daniel Blankenburg

Ever since he was a kid from the Midwest, Dr. Daniel Blankenburg has wanted to live in the Rocky Mountains. Dr. Blankenburg received his undergraduate degree from the University of Kentucky where he graduated Magna Cum Laude and is a diehard Wildcats basketball fan. After his undergraduate degree, he took his studies to his undergrad’s rival, the University of Louisville and its School of Dentistry.

Dr. Blankenburg is a firm believer in personal connections and relationship building with his patients to ensure they receive the best care possible. He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry and the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.

In his spare time, Dr. Blankenburg and his wife, Devin, love spending time in the mountains and traveling with their dog, Louie. Dr. Blankenburg is an avid snowboarder, hiker and all-things sports or outdoors, but you also might catch him taking in stand-up comedy acts or live music around town.

Dr. Matt Murphy
Dr. Matt Murphy is originally from Eagan, Minnesota. After graduating from high school, he went on to earn his Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska. After completing his undergraduate degree, Dr. Murphy earned his DDS from Creighton University School of Dentistry.

During dental school, Dr. Murphy volunteered with a number of programs to bring healthy smiles to those in need. He was involved in programs like ‘Building Healthy Smiles’ and the ‘High School Explorer Program,’ where he provided dental screenings and education to school-aged kids.

After graduating from dental school, Dr. Murphy and his wife, Meghan, made the decision to move to Colorado, where she was born and raised. In his free time, he enjoys the outdoors and all that Colorado has to offer. He and Meghan are avid campers, and enjoy finding new hiking trails. Although now a permanent resident of Colorado, Dr. Murphy is a big Minnesota sports fan – specifically the Minnesota Wild!

Dr. Murphy is a member of the Colorado Dental Association and the American Dental Association.
