Stanbrick Dental Group

It all started in 1997 with Dr. Mary Blakeley, a passionate dentist fresh out of the University of Nebraska Dental School. She opened Willow Creek Dental in Highlands Ranch, where her commitment to patient care quickly built a loyal following. Dr. Blakeley believed in building lasting relationships with her patients and delivering quality care that made a big difference.

Dr. Blakeley’s husband, Ben, joined her with a vision that would expedite growth of their practice. Together, they sought to create a meaningful difference in the community at a larger scale—a dental group that maintained the personal touch of a local practice while offering the comprehensive care of a larger organization.

Their guiding principles were clear: build an exceptional team, provide outstanding patient care, maintain transparency, and integrate specialists into the patient experience. These principles became the foundation of what we now call “The Stanbrick Way.”

As Willow Creek Dental grew, so did the Blakeleys’ ambition. In 2017, they established Stanbrick Dental Group, a name that honors their grandfathers, Stan and Brick—figures who embodied the values they cherished. The Stanbrick Dental Group expanded by partnering with like-minded dentists across the Denver metro area, each practice retaining its unique identity while adhering to the Stanbrick philosophy of care.

The culmination of their vision came in 2022 with the opening of Stanbrick Dental Specialists, the first facility in the Denver area to fully integrate specialty care under one umbrella. This brought together endodontics, periodontics, oral surgery, prosthodontics, and orthodontics, allowing patients to receive comprehensive treatment from a coordinated team of experts.

Stanbrick Dental Group has grown from a single practice to a network of nine dental offices, all united by the common philosophy of exceptional patient care.
