Dr. Wold loves spending time with his wife Kristine and their four children. He enjoys playing basketball, hunting, going to the movies and is a novice fly fisherman.
Dr. Tricia Genho
A native of Cheyenne, Dr. Genho was drawn to the field of pediatric dentistry because of her love for children and desire to promote healthy oral habits. Dr. Genho finds great pleasure in helping young children grow into happy and confident dental patients who will be proud of their smile. She received her bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University and her DDS from Creighton University.
She loves spending time with her husband Michael and two children. They enjoy many family outdoor activities, including camping, boating and horseback riding.
Dr. Lauren Allen
Dr. Allen grew up on a small farm near Sutton, Nebraska. She recieved her bachelors degree in biology from Wayne State College. Dr. Allen continued her education in Arizona at Midwestern University to earn her masters in biomedical science followed by her DMD.
Prior to joining the Smile Academy team, Dr. Allen lived and worked in the Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina, where she met her husband Billy. The two enjoy playing volleyball, traveling, and camping. Dr. Allen loves pigs, marshmallows, and the color purple.
Dr. Callie Holwegner
Dr. Callie Owen Holwegner was born and raised in Cheyenne, Wyoming. She is truly a hometown girl, attending elementary school, junior high and high school in Cheyenne before studying at the University of Wyoming in Laramie, Wyoming. She received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree, followed by her Master of Science degree in Oral biology and a certificate in Orthodontics, all at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry.
She is so excited to be back in Cheyenne to share her passion for orthodontics with her patients! Dr. Holwegner met her husband, Mathew, while attending the University of Wyoming and their three kids Elijah, Lucas and Nora keep them very busy. In her free time, Dr. Holwegner enjoys watching and participating in all kinds of sports!
Dr. Bullock
Dr. Cal Bullock earned his Doctorate of Dental Surgery at Creighton University in Omaha Nebraska. While attending this University he consistently achieved academic excellence and inclusion on the Dean’s Honor Roll. Dr. Bullock was able to serve the community of Omaha and the state of Nebraska by serving in a community health clinic as well as volunteering for Give Kids a Smile day and the pediatric portion of the Nebraska Mission of Mercy.
Upon completion of dental school, Dr. Bullock continued his education in a dental residency specializing in pediatric and special needs health care. Dr. Bullock’s
residency, which was established by the Lutheran Medical Center in New York City, was located in a community clinic on the Eastern shore of Maryland due to the extensive oral health needs of that area. During his residency Dr. Bullock gained extensive experience with advanced behavior management techniques while working with anxious and uncooperative children affected by severe early childhood decay in this underserved population. After completion of this two year advanced training program, Dr. Bullock returns to Billings as a certified and board eligible clinician specializing in infant, child and adolescent oral health care. For Dr. Bullock, the most rewarding aspect of dentistry is watching a previously anxious patient begin to enjoy return trips to the dentist and treating a once fearful child who is now at ease in a dental chair.
Dr. Bullock grew up in Cody, Wyoming and is excited to return to the Rocky Mountains. He and his wife, Amanda (whom he met on an airplane), have three exuberant little girls. Dr. Bullock and his family love all things outdoors be it camping, fishing and hunting, or rock climbing, biking or snowboarding.
Dr. Erin Asay
Dr. Erin Asay (aka bff to the tooth fairy) loves helping tots to teens with their dental needs. She graduated from Creighton Dental School in 2013 then completed a residency in pediatric dentistry through NYU-Langone Health in 2022; she brings both experience and new innovations to Smile Academy.
Dr. Asay’s goal is to help kids love the dentist. With extensive experience in both traditional and non-invasive techniques, she is capable of treating even the most anxious of littles.
Out of the office, you might see Dr. Asay coaching her daughter Charlotte’s soccer team or chasing her son Edward around town. As natives to Cheyenne, she and her husband Austin are grateful to be raising their family in the great state of Wyoming.
Dr. Galanto
Dr. Galanto is originally from Southern California. She received her undergraduate degree from Claremont McKenna College and her DMD from the University of Pennsylvania. She completed her pediatric training at the University of Southern California.
Before joining the Smile Academy, Dr. Galanto worked in a private practice in Pasadena, CA and taught at USC and the Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles. She and her husband moved to Northern Colorado in 2020. When the weather is good they love running outside. Their son Sam keeps them busy too!
