Aurora South's Favorite Dentist

My name is Dr. Annie Bielinski. I grew up in my family's dental practice in Chicago, where both of my parents, aunt, and grandpa were dentists. I fell in love with small town Colorado when I moved to Basalt in 2005. I graduated dental school from The University of Colorado and have a passion for helping people with dental anxiety. On my days off you can find me in the mountains with my husband Jeremy, skiing, swing dancing, or eating tacos.

My name is Dr. Meg Dinkel. Although my three siblings and I grew up all over (Go Navy!), Colorado has always been my family’s home base—both sets of my grandparents are from Colorado (Arvada and Golden). I studied at the University of Denver before graduating from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine. I love spending quality time with my family and my fiancé Dr. Matt Iritani. I enjoy long walks, thought-provoking podcasts, beautiful bike rides, paddle-boarding, and rollerblading. One of my greatest joys is dentistry. I love helping my patients reach their dental goals and maintaining healthy & happy smiles that last a lifetime! 

My name is Dr. Makenna Fopma. I am a Colorado native, originally from Broomfield, CO.

I love spending quality time with my family, soaking up Colorado sunshine, going to church, eating yummy food, and reading! Dentistry and transforming smiles is my passion. It brings me so much JOY to be able to serve and connect with my patients on a personal level and help them reach their dental goals!
