I was born in Scottsbluff, NE and at age 6, moved with my family to Torrington, WY. I graduated from high school in Torrington and then went to Chadron State College. After three years at Chadron State, I was accepted into the University of Nebraska College of Dentistry program, in Lincoln, NE. While at Chadron State, working on my undergraduate studies, I met Becky, my wife. We were both in our last semester at Chadron State when we met. Becky went to Omaha to further her education in occupational therapy while I was in Dental school. I graduated with honors from dental school and in 2005 took over Dr. Dale Andersons practice, as he transitioned into retirement.

I knew I wanted to become a dentist during my senior year of high school. We had a class that allowed us to shadow a profession in the community for one hour per week. I chose to shadow a local dentist. Due to their office being short-staffed one day, I was able to help assist. One patient in particular stood out to me. She was in pain and we were able to take the sensitivity away from her exposed roots. To see how much relief we offered her profoundly impacted me. It was from that point on that I decided I wanted to be able to help people like that.

For me to be my best, I feel it is important to prioritize my life roles. My first priority is to fulfil my role as a follower of Jesus Christ.I became a Christian during the summer of 2000. My second most important role is to serve my family including my wife, son and daughter. My third most important role is my work as a dentist, and to serve each patient with the best of care. I take all three roles very seriously and continually strive to be the best Christ follower, husband, dad, friend and dentist that I can be. When time allows, I like to be outdoors, either up in the mountains, golfing, fishing or even just sitting on the swing with my family in the back yard.I believe being active in my community and profession allows me to grow as an individual and to give back a little of what I have already been so graciously given. I am a member of the following associations:

I feel blessed to be working with my best friend, my husband, Dr. Cotant. My appreciation for what he does continues to grow each day. He carries all the great qualities that make him a wonderful father and husband into the dental office. His passion for his profession, desire to continue to learn, dedication to his patients, and his pursuance for excellence in everything he does, makes me proud to be his wife. As a couple, we pray that everyone we encounter can see Christs love in and through us.

I was born and raised on a farm north of Norfolk, Nebraska. I learned many qualities from being raised on the farm- my desire to serve God, work ethic, value of relationships and ability to multi-task I owe to the experience I gained on the farm and the values instilled in me from my parents.

I am blessed to be able to continue my career in occupational therapy, while also utilizing my healthcare administration degree to perform administrative and operating duties for Cotant Family Dentistry. I enjoy building relationships with patients, building rapport with staff and being able to take on the business aspect of the practice for Dr. Cotant.

My name is Kimmy, and I am the Financial Coordinator for Cotant Family Dentistry. My start date was November 11, 2020. I moved here from Washington State in September 2020. I have been in the dental field since 2010. I went to school for Medical Administrative Assisting in 2009. I started my first job in the dental field, working for Skyway Dental in 2010, as Front Office Administrator and Scheduling. Soon after, I became the Office Manager and worked at that office until 2018. I then worked at Woodland Dental Center from 2018 to 2020 as the Insurance Coordinator before I moved here to Buffalo, Wyoming. Before going to school and working in the medical/dental industry, I was in customer service for 7 years.

I look forward to working with the community to help patients with their financial needs; to help them achieve the best care and dental treatment. I am happy to go over your insurance with you or to send out pre-authorizations to your insurance to ensure coverage of any upcoming procedures. If you should have any questions or concerns, Im always here to help. In my free time I like to be outdoors hiking, fishing, and camping. I also like to do arts and crafts in the wintertime to keep myself busy. I have been married since 2018, and enjoy our two dogs Ozwald and Motley, who bring me great joy.

I am enjoying dental hygiene as a second career. I was employed by the University of Wyoming Bookstore in retail management prior to returning to school for a degree in dental hygiene. I had been a dental assistant in the late 70s and became interested in oral health care. When the opportunity was presented, I returned to school.

I have 3 married daughters and I have 6 grandchildren who I do not get to see often enough, but when I retire they will be my main focus. I enjoy a western lifestyle, with riding horses and many closely related outdoor activities. I also enjoy woodworking and leather creations when the Wyoming weather keeps me inside.

Each day is a new learning experience and my skills continue to advance. I am fortunate to be able to see patients from 1 year of age and beyond, giving me the opportunity to become a more knowledgeable health care provider.

I was born in Gillette, Wyoming but grew up in Buffalo on our family ranch 15 miles south of town. I attended Casper College on a rodeo scholarship while studying health science. I was then accepted into Sheridan Colleges Dental Hygiene program where I spent the next two years living and continued to rodeo for Sheridan College.

I married my husband in 2019 and we welcomed our son, Wyatt in 2021. My husband and I run our own cow/calf operation and are so incredibly thankful to live and raise our son in Buffalo. I am a country girl and always will be at heart. I enjoy helping with livestock on the ranch, spending time in the Big Horns (camping and hunting), hitting rodeos when I can, and of course spending time with my family.

Being able to promote dental and overall health to each patient, through quality dental care is a passion of mine. I enjoy forming new relationships with my patients each day. I truly enjoy being a hygienist; it is such a rewarding job. Working at Cotant Family Dentistry is a true blessing. I work among a team who all strive for quality patient care every day. Our office is very welcoming and I have always believed if you love your job you will never have to work a day in your life.

Ive lived in Buffalo since middle school, and Buffalo is definitely the place I will always call home. I went to dental hygiene school in Sheridan, WY. I graduated in 2017 and after that my husband, James and I moved to South Dakota so I could practice dental hygiene. When a position opened up at Cotant Family Dentistry, I quickly applied with the hope to move home and do the job I love and provide for my community. We are so grateful to be able to raise our beautiful daughter Kamryn (we also have two fur babies) in Buffalo!

I began working here in 2018 and I get to practice dental hygiene, as well as assist Dr. Cotant. I truly have a passion for the dental field and my position here allows me to be versatile and I love it. I enjoy being able to help my patients learn and understand their oral health needs and concerns. I am proud to work with a team of individuals who truly care for our patients, and strive to provide the best quality of care.

I was born in New Mexico and moved to Buffalo with my family in the 80s when my dad was transferred here for work. Buffalo is a beautiful place to live. I enjoy hiking and paddle boarding in the summer and cross country skiing in the winter. I have two grown children, a son and a daughter, and I am proud of each of them. I love spending time with them, whether on an adventure or just hanging out together.

After working in banking for 14 years, I chose to go back to school to become a dental hygienist. I worked for Dr. Cotant as a dental assistant while I went to school. I graduated from dental hygiene school in 2018. I began my second career as a hygienist in Lander and Gillette, before returning to Buffalo. I appreciate and enjoy the interaction with patients, building relationships, and positively impacting their oral and overall health.

I worked in the mental health field for several years and began my career in dentistry in 2017 as an assistant. I joined Cotant Family Dentistry in April of 2019 where I started as the Financial Coordinator. The beginning of 2020 I transitioned to the familiar role of a Dental Assistant and Patient Coordinator where I enjoy helping all of our patients feel comfortable and confident in their dental experience.

My family and I love the wonderful community of Buffalo. We cannot say enough amazing things about this state and love living here. We thoroughly enjoy the gorgeous scenery of the Big Horns and the vast array of outdoor adventures to experience. I love hiking, biking, camping, kayaking, ice skating, snow showing, cross country skiing and basically any excuse to be outdoors. Buffalo has welcomed us with open arms and I am proud to be apart of such a charming community and amazing dental team.

I start with the above scripture because it is the foundation of my life. My purpose is to use the strength that God has given me and fulfill my role in the community by helping those in need. I am a native of El Paso, Texas and have been married 29 years to my wonder husband, Wes. I am blessed with 2 beautiful children, Alex and James, plus I now have 2 grandkids, Adam and Lauren which I adore. I have enjoyed being an orthodontist assistant and a dental assistant for many years. When i am not in my scrubs, you can find me up at the tallest mountain praising God and looking out at his beautiful masterpiece.

It sounds funny but I actually look forward to my dental visits with Cotant Dentistry! The staff are super friendly and make you feel like family. Dr. Cotant is a true professional and takes time to explain procedures and options. The staff are pleasant, professional and informative. You can tell this is a close-knit "family" of employees who strive to make patients comfortable and welcome. Great folks!

Cotant Family Dentistry, and every single one of their employees, are outstanding!!! My mouth had been bothering me for a few days, and the last night I slept for about 30 minutes. I called about 8:30/9:00 this morning, and I had an appointment for 10!! My husband and I got there early, & they saw me early. They were patient & kind, answered all my questions, then gave me options. I made my decision, after them allowing my husband to come talk to me about it, and all was fixed before noon!!! My husband and I are on vacation, and live in another state - I feel like God had me just where he needed me to be properly helped and fixed! My husband loved them also! I cannot recommend this group high enough! Wish I could bring them to Louisiana! Shelby Pluskat

I am so thankful for this office!! I am recently a full-time traveler and was literally just arriving into town before the holiday weekend when a crown fell out! Right next to my front tooth too, Ugh! I quickly called 3 dentists and was getting concerned I would have to go quite some time before getting in somewhere. Then Dr. Cotant Family Dentistry said they would fit me in first thing in the morning...I'll be there!! Everyone there was so nice and took excellent care of me. I highly recommend them and would love visit them regularly if I am in the area again. Thank you again Cotant Family Dentistry for making my visit to the area even better!

This is a wonderful dentist office. I am so lucky to have found them. After being terrified for years, they all have been wonderful to me. The staff and Dr. Cotant have handled me with the utmost respect, care, compassion, and gentleness I could have ever asked for. They have all gone above their means to help me through some difficult visits for me.

I really feel at ease at Dr. Cotant's office. From the front desk to the back office no one is as kind, gentle, and non-judgmental as Dr. Contant and staff. Thank you- immensely! Kat

This is world class dentistry. Dr. Cotant is amazing! Getting my teeth looked at by Dr. Cotant was the best decision I've made in a while. I had a cleaning and some cavities filled. The procedure was painless and I can't believe how my mouth felt back to normal after the numbing medication wore off. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone that needs help with their teeth. Seriously!

What a wonderful experience! I had a lovely conversation with Angel, the receptionist, before my appointment, which set the tone for the rest of my visit. I was a little hesitant going into the appointment because I have only ever seen one other dentist in my entire life. Soon after, I realized I was very fortunate to see Dr. Cotant, as he discussed preventive measures in my oral health that I had never discussed with my old doctor. Beyond Dr. Cotant's clear expertise, his staff was also extremely effective in providing outstanding care. I am very pleased, to say the least. Thanks guys!

Angel the Financial Coordinator is extremely rude and incompetent. I would not recommend this place if you value your time and money. They do not care about people that have low credit scores or no credit at all.

Without a doubt one of the best dentists I've ever been to. I hadn't ever been seen in their office, but was having trouble with a tooth. Contant Family Dentistry got me in that day, and gave me the answer to toothache. They were amazing and really listened to me. When I went in for my appointment Dr. Cotant started small in an effort to preserve what he could of the tooth and kept me from paying an arm and a leg. He was caring and listened. He even gave me his cell phone number to call if I had problems, and then called to check on me after the office had closed. Everyone in the office is kind and caring. They worked with my insurance and were very affordable. I finally found a dentist I trust, and absolutely love. I can't thank them enough!
