Our Doctors

I absolutely love working at Wynkoop Dentistry – the positivity, enthusiasm, and overall vibe of this practice is electric, and I hope you feel it too!  Working in such a supportive environment fosters a culture centered around teamwork and top-notch patient care, and I’m so happy to share my love of dentistry with you.

I grew up in a family of engineers, so my entire upbringing was saturated with a passion for science, mechanics, and creativity.  Quickly realizing I was an extrovert and better suited for a career working with people, I found the perfect amalgam (pun intended) of my interests in a single profession: dentistry.  I like to think of myself as “a citizen of the world,” having spent my childhood bouncing around from state-to-state and country-to-country. My Air Force family’s tendency to move so frequently instilled in me a love of meeting new people and getting to know them more personally.  I apply this to my work, and I love hearing from fearful patients that I’ve changed their perception of dentists.

I moved to Colorado after graduating from the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and fell in love with this beautiful state.  After graduating from dental school, I stayed in Colorado to complete my residency in hospital dentistry before ultimately deciding to create a permanent home in Denver.  I have been happily working as a general and cosmetic dentist in private practice ever since! I love my job because it allows me to get to know individuals and families, and watch them grow.  Working at Wynkoop Dentistry allows me to utilize the latest in science and technology to provide state-of-the-art diagnosis and treatment for everyone. When I’m not practicing dentistry I’m usually in the kitchen, reading a new book, or enjoying Colorado’s outdoor activities with my husband and our pup, Beilein!

What I love most about working at Wynkoop Dentistry is the unique culture and state of the art technology. The enthusiasm for personal and professional growth, and the sense of team camaraderie allows us to provide quality dental care dialed in for each individual patient. And it makes it easy for me to come to work everyday!

I was born and raised on Long Island, New York. I headed south for better weather where I attended the University of Miami for college. (Go Canes!)  New York called me back for dental school, where I attended the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. After finishing dental school with Magna Cum Laude Latin honors, I then completed a General Practice Residency program at Jacobi Medical Center in New York City.

For the past five years I have been practicing in the front range. Despite an eternity in school, I am still eager to stay current on the latest research and procedures in dentistry. I am most excited about expanding my implant and restorative practice with the newest approaches and options for care. I love providing my patients with great care and better music recommendations (Have you heard of John Digweed?)

While I love the Big Apple and the beaches of Miami, Denver is now my home. I love hiking with my dog Steve, camping (if the views are worth it), and (over) indulging in Denver’s music and restaurant scene.

Dr. Nika was born and raised near Denver, she completed her undergrad at CU Boulder (GOBuffs!) and graduated from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine.

Wynkoop was the perfect fit for her- a dental family that is dedicated to providing the best care to patients in a positive, caring, and fun environment.  Dr. Nika is passionate about providing the best care in a friendly, and comfortable setting. She hopes that everyone who sits in her chair has a positive experience and leaves feeling educated and empowered.

When she is not practicing dentistry, Dr. Nika can be found spending time with her family, taking work out classes, cooking, traveling, and exploring all the incredible things this city and state have to offer!
