Charika — Lead Assistant

My Name is Charika and I have been an EDDA Assistant for over 23 years. I had the pleasure to start working at MountainAire Dentistry in 2018.
My dental experience is amazing here. I absolutely love what I do on a daily basis in and outside the office. In my spare time, I enjoy singing and going to church. I have been married to my wonderful husband for over 20 years. I have 4 children 2 girls and 2 boys. It’s wonderful seeing my older children adulating, I’m also excited to say I have one grand “Suga” as you can see my family is my world.

Dentistry is a passion of mine and meeting new people is the best thing about my career.

In the meantime, I enjoy watching patients smile and be happy about their completed dental work. I also appreciate it when patients are relaxed and comfortable in my chair while having dental procedures done.

Nicole loves getting to know patients and talking about oral care! In her free time Nicole enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, horseback riding, and learning to mountain bike.

Summer - Dental Hygienist

Summer is originally from Saint Charles Missouri and is the second oldest of 7 kids. She has lived in Colorado since 2018, after graduating cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene from Southern Illinois University.

She thrives to focus on each individual while being sure to educate, motivate, and answer any questions you may have during your dental visit. She is thorough yet gentle and will leave you feeling fresh, clean, and ready to smile bright.

In her free time she enjoys live music, traveling, and relaxing with her fiancé and their fur babies.

Clarize — Dental Assistant

My name is Clarize and I started working as a dental assistant at MountainAire since August 2022. My experience here has been incredible due to having a team that provides the best patient care and teamwork. I enjoy dentistry so much that I am currently pursuing to become an Extended duties dental assistant (EDDA). And cannot wait to help even more in our office and give patients back their smiles! Outside of work I enjoy the outdoor activities Colorado has to offer. I have a very friendly and loving rescue dog named Ranger and he’s been an amazing addition to our lives.

Lauren — Office Manager

My name is Lauren, and I am the Practice Manager at MountainAire Dentistry. I have worked in dentistry for 12 years, including the past six years alongside Dr. Bockrath, with the last three at MountainAire. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in several roles within the dental field, which has given me a deep appreciation for every part of the patient experience.

I am truly passionate about what we do here at MountainAire. Leading and supporting our team, Dr. Bockrath, and our patients is incredibly rewarding. My goal is to foster a welcoming, organized, and positive environment where our patients feel comfortable, cared for, and confident in the treatment they receive. Seeing our patients relaxed, happy, and trusting in us means everything — because we genuinely care.

Outside of dentistry, my greatest joy is my family. I am married and a proud mom to my 15-month-old son, who is my "little bestie" and light of my life. I also have 3 pets whom I love and adore. When I’m not at the office, I enjoy planting, doing photography, being outdoors, exploring new restaurants, traveling, and embracing experiences that allow for personal growth and connection.
