2022 TOP P&E

Dr. Christopher Chance is a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist, and is the co-owner of Oaks Point Pediatric Dentistry, located in the neighborhood of Garden Oaks/Oak Forest, with his wife

Dr. Courtney Jacocks Chance. Dr. Chance believes that a village raises a child, and their dentist is a very important member of that village. His purpose is to help prepare and navigate children through the promotion of healthy and productive lifestyles. He understands that a visit to the dentist can be seemingly scary, but his expertise and passion is providing consistent, positive experiences to each child and their families in an enjoyable and informative manner. Thus, transforming potential fear into confidence that can be transferred to other aspects of their lives.

Dr. Chance graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2010 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural

Biotechnology. He then attended the

University of Kentucky College of Dentistry, and received his Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry (DMD) degree in 2014.

Furthermore, Dr. Chance completed his pediatric dental residency in 2016 at Case

Western Reserve University School of

Dental Medicine at Case Medical Center/

Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital where he received additional specialized training in treating patients from infancy to adulthood, including individuals with special needs.

The spark for pursuing dentistry began, for Dr. Chance, while volunteering at a dental clinic simply to fulfill community service requirements in order to graduate high school. This particular clinic treated children in underserved areas, and what he thought would be a supposedly mundane graduation requirement turned into a desire to make a positive difference in the oral health of children in the community. Dr. Chance is blessed to have mentors that continue to help him cultivate his dental career, and takes pride in doing the same for many other soon-to-be pediatric dentists around the country. For Dr. Chance, this spark was not created just for him, it is to be used to help light a path for future Black pediatric dentists who will be impactful members of our children’s villages. In his spare time, Dr. Chance enjoys traveling, spending time with friends, loving on his family, and playing golf. Dr. Christopher Chance is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.
