Dr. Chris Mattingly has been practicing orthodontics since 1991 in Louisville, Bardstown, and Lebanon. After graduating from Ballard High School, he attended Centre College and was admitted to the University of Louisville School of Dentistry after two years of undergraduate work.
Dr. Mattingly undertook a two-year residency in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics in 1991 at the University of Louisville, while simultaneously obtaining a Master's Degree in Oral Biology. He also completed his American Board of Orthodontic Diplomate certification in 2006.
Staying at the leading edge of orthodontics has always been a high priority for Dr. Mattingly. He is involved in several clubs, such as the 80s Orthodontic Study Club and the University of Louisville Alumni Association and is an active member of many associations, including:
Dr. Mattingly has also served as the president of the Kentucky Association of Orthodontics and the Louisville Dental Society, as well as leadership positions with the Southern Association of Orthodontists.
Dr. Mattingly was appointed by the Governor to serve on the Kentucky Board of Dentistry from 2017 to 2020. To him, giving back to the dental profession is an honor, but his true passion lies in programs that help the less fortunate.
Dr. Mattingly has traveled numerous times to Guatemala with Hearts in Motion and Bellarmine University to deliver dental care. Click here to see pictures from a recent trip to Guatemala.
While in dental school, Dr. Mattingly met and married Dr. Jo Mattingly, who taught at UL School of Dentistry and practiced general dentistry in Louisville before passing away in 2014.
They have two daughters, Jordan and Mckenzie, who are incredible young ladies and carry on their mother's beautiful spirit every day. Both continued in the dental tradition with Jordan graduating from dental school in 2017 and Mckenzie from dental hygiene school in 2015. Jordan tragically passed away in 2020 from Leukemia and has joined her mother as Dr. Mattingly's and Mckenzie's guardian angels.
Dr. Mattingly married Ms. Colette Delaney in 2018. Colette is from Louisville and has been a professional actress and singer at Derby Dinner Playhouse, The Stephen Foster Drama, The Mid-Kentucky Chorus, and various churches. Ms. Colette has 2 grown children, Daniel and Sedona who share their mother's gentle heart.
Dr. Mattingly and his office staff are very welcoming, caring, personable and professional. I am so happy with my Invisalign results.
Such a great experience for braces! We appreciated the care we received from the doctors, assistants, and front desk staff. Thank you Mattingly & Howell!
I haven’t had to have an orthodontist office since I was a teenager and now I’m in my 40s and I’m so glad I found Mattingly and Howell! They have been so wonderful! Everyone there is so nice and everything has gone so smoothly with what I needed done. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that needs an orthodontist office!
Dr. Mattingly and Dr. Howell have provided orthodontic treatment to 4 members of my family. They are both fantastic and we really love the orthodontic assistants as well.
We've been sending our family to Mattingly and Howell for 30+ years! Always a 5 star experience. Thank you for two generations of beautiful smiles! ☺️
