Dr. Christiane Nitcheu believes it is her responsibility to provide patients with a comprehensive range of treatment options available, ensuring they have all the information needed to make informed and empowered decisions about their care. As a provider, her goal is to foster an environment of trust and open communication, allowing patients to choose the path that best aligns with their values, needs and long-term health goals. Dr. Nitcheu has a particular interest in preventive dentistry, as she believes that there is no better approach than preventing disease from developing in the first place. A career in dentistry allows her to help people prevent oral health issues, which is truly fulfilling. She has a passion for helping people and finds great satisfaction in improving lives. One thing she loves most about working with her patients is seeing them become more invested and interested in their oral health.
Originally from Cameroon, Dr. Nitcheu moved to rural Colorado, her first place to live in the United States. She was drawn to the community spirit, which makes it feel like home. Outside of work, she enjoys walking, reading, cooking, and spending quality time with her friends and family. Dr. Nitcheu also enjoys giving back to the community and is actively involved in several community programs, including volunteering for Give Kids A Smile (GKAS) and at her local church.
