Our Story
Where the Vision for Longmont Dental Loft Began
After several years working for a large dental corporation, Dr. Adrienne Hedrick was inspired to create a dental practice centered on people, both patients and team, supported by the best technology available. She envisioned an environment that combined advanced dentistry with warmth, trust, and a calm atmosphere.
In 2007, she decided to take the leap and begin building the kind of patient experience she always believed dentistry could deliver.

Our Beginning in Longmont
Just a year later, that vision found its first home in Longmont. In January 2008, Dr. Hedrick found the perfect opportunity to bring her vision to life when she purchased the practice of Dr. Joseph Kelliher, a well-respected Longmont dentist who was preparing to retire. After a series of interviews, Dr. Kelliher chose Dr. Hedrick to carry on his legacy and continue caring for his patients.
Under Dr. Hedrick’s leadership, the practice quickly began to grow, laying the foundation for the welcoming, technology-driven environment that Longmont Dental Loft is known for today.
Our New Location
The transition from Dr. Kelliher’s practice was a great success, and before long we began to outgrow our office space. In 2013, we moved from our original location on 17th Street to our current home off Hover Road in Longmont. Around that same time, we also changed our name from “Adrienne Hedrick, DDS” to Longmont Dental Loft, a reflection of the modern, uplifting experience we strive to create for every patient.
Dr. Ryan Joins the Team
As Longmont Dental Loft continued to grow, so did our need for another talented and compassionate dentist who shared our values. In August 2024, we welcomed Dr. Megan Ryan to the team.
Dr. Hedrick has always had a strong passion for advanced dental surgeries such as dental implants and full-arch restorations, and Dr. Ryan’s arrival allows her to dedicate more time to those complex procedures. At the same time, Dr. Ryan shares that same surgical interest and provides exceptional care in all areas of general and restorative dentistry.
The Implant Center at Longmont Dental Loft
In May 2025, we expanded our practice with the opening of The Implant Center at Longmont Dental Loft, located on the first floor of our building in Suite 100. This new space was created to better serve patients seeking advanced surgical care, including dental implants and full-arch restorations (often known as All-on-X).
Dr. Adrienne Hedrick has a deep passion for surgical dentistry and has performed hundreds of dental implants, including full-arch implant procedures. While she continues to see patients in our main office on the third floor (Suite 309), the Implant Center provides her and our team with a dedicated environment designed specifically for surgical care.
This addition reflects our ongoing commitment to excellence in implant dentistry and to providing patients with a calm, state-of-the-art space for advanced procedures.
Continued Growth and a Perfect Fit
As our patient family continued to grow faster than expected, it became clear that we needed another exceptional dentist to help us maintain the same level of personal care our patients have come to expect. In August 2025, one year after Dr. Ryan joined our team, we welcomed Dr. Kaitlyn Hahn to Longmont Dental Loft.
Dr. Hahn was already familiar to us, as she had been part of the same local study club as Dr. Hedrick and Dr. Ryan. From those collaborations, we knew she shared our passion for precision dentistry, patient comfort, and continuing education. Her addition to the team allows us to continue offering the advanced care and warm experience that define Longmont Dental Loft.
