Dentist In Golden, CO
Dr. Kenson was the sixth generation to be born and raised on her family’s cattle ranch outside of Prescott, AZ. She developed a strong foundation in Biology during her time at Arizona State University, earning her B.S. degree before pursuing her passion for dentistry at the prestigious University of Michigan Dental School – Go Blue!
Dr. Kenson has undergone extensive training in TMJ pain and treatment, airway and sleep issues, craniofacial development as well as full-mouth rehabilitations. She is continuously seeking new opportunities for learning and attends various continuing education courses to ensure she can provide the highest quality and comprehensive care to her patients.
Her advanced education in occlusion makes her uniquely qualified for advanced esthetic cases as well as treatment with orthodontic aligners. Dr. Kenson understands the importance of correcting bite issues even when addressing basic cosmetic concerns. She treats all cases from a functional perspective as well as a cosmetic one.
She firmly believes that the mouth serves as the gateway to the rest of the body, and that signs in the mouth can directly impact our overall health.
Dr. Kenson also applies the principles learned about treating airway/TMD issues in adults to the younger generation. It is her passion to help develop airways so that the next generation doesn’t suffer from the airway and TMJ issues of their parents.

After graduating from dental school, Dr. Kenson moved to Colorado to join her brother, Tyler, who was already residing in the Centennial State. Although she misses the joy of catching crawdads in the creek and listening to her Grandpa’s stories about ranch life in the 40’s and 50’s, she feels that many of the things she loves about the ranch are easily accessible here in Colorado.
Dr. Kenson’s husband Mark is a Colorado Native. Mark, has dedicated his life to public service, first as an infantry officer in the Army and presently as a member of the Denver Fire Department. In their leisure time they enjoy spending time outdoors with their daughters Remy and Nell. Most weekends, you can find them fishing in remote lakes and streams or accompanying Mark on his archery elk hunts in the fall. If she’s not in the mountains, you’ll likely find her experimenting with culinary creations or engaged in a home improvement project—she always keeps her hands busy!
