Who We Are

Dr. Brittney Franklin grew up in South Central Pennsylvania. She learned some of her first dentistry from her dad Dr. John Franklin, who retired from his Shippensburg dental practice in 2012. She attended the University of Virginia for her bachelor’s degree in biology, and then the University of Pittsburgh for her doctorate in dental medicine. She also received additional specialty training in orthodontics and a masters degree from Temple University. She continues to keep her skills sharp with continuing education!

Dr. Franklin met her husband, Edward, while living in Baltimore and convinced him to come with her to the beautiful Cumberland Valley of South Central PA to open her orthodontic office. They have been blessed by their children, Coralyn (2) and Jonas (6 mos), as well as their fur babies, Ella the dog and Kashmir the cat. Dr. Franklin loves going to the park with the kids and traveling when she can. She also enjoys cooking and baking at home.

Heather

Clinical Assistant

With more than 18 years of clinical experience in orthodontics, I have really enjoyed getting to know all of my patients as I help them to achieve a beautiful smile! I am mainly a clinical assistant here at Franklin Orthodontics, but I wear a variety of other hats throughout the week. I take charge of inventory and ordering for the office, I maintain the dental equipment, and I even help out with scheduling appointments. When I’m not at work I love spending time outdoors with my two daughters (ages 7 and 16) and my husband. You might also find me working on crafty projects around the house or taking care of my new puppy.

Cari

Clinical Assistant

I have been a clinical assistant at Dr. Franklin’s office for 6 years now, but I have been in the field for 10+ years. I love to laugh and make people smile, so orthodontics is absolutely the perfect place for me. During football season I will definitely be watching WVU games on the weekend with my family. My husband and I have a daughter entering the military as a nurse and another in middle school. I always look forward to the times when we can all be together.

Luciana

Treatment Coordinator

I am the treatment and financial coordinator for Franklin Orthodontics. I will likely be one of the very first people you meet at our practice when you come in for a new patient appointment. I help Dr. Franklin As an aside, you can reach me English OR Spanish, since I am originally from Uruguay. Even before you arrive in our office for your first consultation I will have already worked to understand your insurance policy so that we can accurately discuss financials and find a way to make your perfect smile a possibility. I am very proud of the service I provide for our patients in submitting their insurance claims and going above and beyond to help them secure their orthodontic benefits. On the weekends I like to cook, watch soccer and spend time with my husband and our dog. I also love to FaceTime with my 6 year old niece!
