Meet Dr. Chad Cattron
Dr. Chad is a fun-loving guy who grew up in Kalispell, where he wrestled and graduated from Flathead High School. He did his undergrad at FVCC and the University of Montana, later attending dental school at the University of Minnesota. He completed his pediatric dental residency among the Ozarks in Springfield, Missouri. When Dr. Chad is away from the office, he loves playing in the mountains of his hometown in Montana. His favorite things to do are wake/snowboard, spending time with his wife and three kids, playing catch with their two dogs(sometimes cats,too) and quoting movies!
Dr. Chad enjoys all kids-including fur kids! We know the dentist can be a scary place, but that’s why Dr. Chad and his buddy, Burr, are opening up a dental clinic where kids can always be smiling. Everything is so much more fun when we show off our grin!
After being away from the valley for school, Dr. Chad is thrilled to be back and hopes to not just see you in the office, but in the lakes, rivers and trails around! If you spot him, be sure to say hi!
Dr. Richard
“Dr. Richard has joined the team!”
We are so excited to announce that Dr. Richard Cattron joined the team at Glacier Grins mid-July! Dr. Richard and Dr. Chad are brothers and both are pediatric dentists!
Dr. Richard first received a Bachelor of Science degree in dental hygiene from the Texas A&M College of Dentistry in 2013 and worked as a dental hygienist for several years. He then attended the University of Louisville School of Dentistry and graduated in 2019. Following dental school, Dr. Cattron completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) training program at a clinic that focused on treating individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities. He then completed a two-year Advanced Education in Pediatric Dentistry (AEPD) training program at NYU Langone Health in Tucson, and he loves working with children of all ages.
Dr. Cattron was born and raised in northern Montana and grew up loving camping, hiking and virtually anything outdoors. He and his wife of nearly 20 years have four children ranging in age from 2 to 18 years old.
Did you know, Dr. Chad and Dr. Richard also have another brother, Dr. Jared, who is a pediatric dentist in Arizona and owns Parkland Pediatric Dental with his wife, Jenn. If you have friends or family in Gilbert, AZ, send them his way!

Hi! I’m Kelsi and I grew up in the Flathead Valley. As a mom of three, I spend most of my time with my husband and children. We love playing baseball, volleyball, and soccer. We make room for movies and video games, too! We try and spend as much time outside soaking up all the beauty of creation. During the summer we try to be on the river or camping in the woods. I’m blessed to work here because I get to be a big kid all day long!

Hi! My name is Jonah. I am 23 years old and I have lived in the Flathead Valley for 13 years. I enjoy being active in the gym, as well as outdoors. I have been in dental for 3 years as an assistant. I picked this career because I intend on going to dental school afterwards. I enjoy working with kids and am passionate about their overall health. I am also aware that some kids require special attention and extra care, which I am more than willing to give to make sure they have the best experience possible!
Stephanie Garland
Dental Assistant
Hi! I’m Stephanie!
I was born and raised in Bigfork, MT. I recently moved back to the valley after living in North Carolina for 10 years. I have a 14-year-old springer spaniel who has kept me busy. In my free time, I am usually exploring new hiking trails and rock climbing. Outdoor adventures and gardening are a few of my passions.
I really enjoy working with kids and helping them ease in and have fun at the dental office! Making them feel comfortable and seeing their adorable smiles is something I look forward to every day!

Hi! I’m Tag! I was born in Kansas and moved to Montana 8 years ago. In my free time I like to read and play video games. I also love to play sports and spend time with my family. I chose to work with Glacier Grins because of my interest in the dental field and because I was inspired by my grandpa, who was a dentist!
Mikayla Leachman
Front desk Coordinator / Billing Specialist
Hi, I’m Mikayla! Working at the front desk, my passion is to make sure your experience is wonderful from beginning to end. The highlight of my day is being able to see your children’s smiles after their visit. While I’m not at work, you will most likely find me relaxing in my Tiny House in the woods reading a good book, with some sort of homemade baked treat and a warm coffee. I also love hiking with my three dogs, camping, cooking, kayaking, and spending time with my husband.
Kelly Baumann
Front Desk Coordinator/ Insurance Specialist
Hi, I’m Kelly! My husband and I moved to Montana 12 years ago to live near the beautiful Flathead Lake. We have 2 dogs and 2 young boys who live and breathe sports, and we love every minute of it. I have been coaching baseball and soccer in my spare time and I enjoy camping with my family, reading, and gardening when I am not busy being a sports mom/fan. I am very excited to be able to greet every smiling child that walks through the doors.
Zoe Underwood
Front Desk Coordinator/ Dental Assistant
Zoe started at our office 2 years ago as a dental assistant and has since decided to expand her horizon by moving up front! She still assists, but she is mostly up front happily helping families navigate the dental world. Having grown up in Montana, she enjoys being in the mountains, either hiking or hitting the ski slopes. When she’s not out exploring, she enjoys creating art and walking her cat (yes, she leash trained a cat). Overall, Zoe’s bright, bubbly personality help families feel right at home at Glacier Grins.
