I have been a patient for years and I have always appreciated the honest straight-talk that Dr. Parrett would offer about my dental care. But I write this review about the care my brother received. Dr. Parrett and his team treated my brother with respect. My brother had not received dental care in years and his mouth reflected the lack of care. My brother summed it up best. Dr. Parrett gave him hope.

Update! I have been a patient of Dr Parrett for what feels like most of my adult life now. He is like an academic of dentistry! He is incredibly smart, intuitive, SO gentle and always has a spot on diagnosis and solution. He's done it all for me: from cleaning to cavities to Invisalign to bite issues. His staff are all incredibly kind and caring people.

I have visited Dr. Parrett's office since 1971. It began with Dr. Berryman, who, retiring in 1983 said, "I felt an obligation to try to find someone whose ideas and ideals were compatible with mine. I feel very fortunate to have found a young dentist meeting these criteria" . That was Dr. Parrett. I retain records that some might find trivial.
I must be among Dr. Parrett's oldest patients and there has never been reason to question my loyalty and respect. We've had thirty seven years and he has maintained my teeth so well that I watch without apprehension the video screen visible from the patient

Awesome experience. Dr Parrett was patient, explained everything he was doing, went over x-rays with me and corrected my flossing technique. Did not get the vibe that he was trying to upsell treatments like some other dentists I have used in the past. The front desk was very communicative and organized.

I have been coming here for about 15 years. About two years ago, I started a job in the East Bay so I switched dentists... a rude awakening--apparently I needed thousands of dollars worth of work! Went back to Dr P who looked me over and pronounced me good... So refreshing. These folks are the greatest. Just go here, don't bother with anyone else.

Very friendly and professional staff. The care is top notch and trust worthy. He never pressures you into doing more work than may be necessary.
So far all my experiences have been very positive. Definitely my regular dentist from now on. The hygienist was very friendly as well, she made me feel very comfortable. 5 Stars!

To this day, Dr. Parrett has been by far THE best dentist I've ever had. In fact, he's so fantastic that I've been hesitating to find a new dentist in Boulder because I fear I would just be disappointed.
So what makes Dr. Parrett so awesome? First of all, he's extremely conservative in the treatments he recommends, so I never felt like I was pressured into paying for anything extra. In fact, there was one time where I had what *could* be a cavity, but he decided that I should rinse regularly with fluoride to see if the situation would fix itself (and it did)! That saved

BEST dental experience I have EVER had! I have been going to the same dentist and hygienist for almost 20 years now. I decided to try a new office closer to my work to make things more convenient. I had no idea how bad my dentist and hygienist were until I saw Colette Parrett (hygienist) and Dr Parrett (dentist). I normally need to have my entire mouth numbed for a cleaning and generally still feel some pain, when Colette cleaned my teeth, she didn't use any numbing cream, and I felt absolutely NOTHING! Dr Parrett checked me for mouth cancer (which my dentist has NEVER done), as well as made

I can't believe I've been going to Dr. Parrett for almost 20 years now. My brother, sister-in-law, and I all come across The City to see him every 6 months, even though none of us work nearby anymore, because of his and his staff's amazing service. From a genuine smile from Rachel when I walk in the door, to a thorough cleaning from Donna, to a check up with Dr. Parrett, it is still a pleasure to go to the dentist (yes, I said pleasure). I worry about the day Dr. Parrett retires and I have to find another dentist who treats me so well. I should also mention that throughout all these

I am totally in love with this dental practice. The atmosphere is pleasant and welcoming, and everyone is highly professional while at the same time being gentle, kind, and helpful. Dr. Parrett and his staff have basically erased all my previous dental anxiety (which was not trivial). Very impressed.

I went to see Dr. Parrett for my regular check up and I was absolutely impressed. He performed a very thorough examination and was very detail-oriented. He was very gentle the entire time and answered all the questions that I had patiently.
The receptionist Rachel is the best! I had insurance related questions and she was very helpful. I had requested to notify me if an earlier appointment opens up and she did it.
I didn't catch the nurse's name, but she also very attentive, polite and helpful.
The entire office provided a 5 star service. I'm not only going back there again

I've been coming here for the past two years. Michael is very professional and the hygienists do a good job cleaning my teeth while being gentle and considerate. Making appointments can be a challenge because they are always booked out a few months out. If you need to reschedule even a few weeks before your appointment, the next spot is probably two months out. ( or you can be put on a waitlist for cancelled spots) So try to stick to your appointment.

My experience with Dr. Parrett and his office went from fantastic to fail. Over the course of two years, I felt manipulated into unnecessary and pricey treatments (at-home teeth whitening, teeth straightening). Since I had no major problems, it felt as if they were always looking for something to generate revenue (usually not covered by insurance). As a dentist, Dr. Parrett is very good, but I got tired of being pitched extraneous services. And the billing was a nightmare: I would be told one price only to find it was more expensive and not covered by my insurance. Eventually, I lost faith in

My one visit to Michael Parrot's practice was by far the best, most professional, informative, and comfortable experience I've ever had at a dentists office.
All his staff were extremely welcoming. I thought the water while I was waiting was a nice touch. The initial survey you take as a new patient is thorough and gives you an idea of how much they really care about your well being before they've even say you down in the chair.
He has the top of the line equipment and he's quick to explain what everything is, how it works, and why he's using it.
And to top it all

6 Stars! The best crown experience I've had, and his office went above and beyond when I had some tooth pain. Dr. Parrett had to replace a crown from my previous dentist. Even the temporary crown was done better than the old one, with no rough edges. The crown itself is even better.
I had some pain later in the day, and he saw me immediately, took an X-ray, and called an endodontist in the same building to check me out immediately and make sure I didn't need a root canal. Everything was fine in a few hours, and I really appreciated the extra care they took in making sure I was OK

The team is fantastic at Dr. Parrett's office!
I had a lot of dental work done as a kid, so I'm not a wimp when it come to being in the chair, but I never quite enjoyed a visit to the dentist as much as I do going to see these friendly professionals.
Donna has been my family's hygienist for ages and she is very good, always gentle and thorough. My child never went to a pediatric dentist just strait to Dr. Parrett's as a toddler, and they did everything to make sure his first dental experiences were positive ones.
The staff seems to be up on all the latest technologies

Had my first appointment with Dr. Parrett yesterday afternoon. I can say with confidence that he will probably be my dentist until one of us moves away or dies.
My awesome experience started with Norma Jean's morning call letting me know that they had an opening in the hygienist's schedule and if I could get in earlier, they could get the cleaning done in the same appointment, rather than having me come back after the initial exam! When I arrived she asked if she could hang my sweater and handed me a bottle of water. How great is that!?
I was then greeted by, Holly, the hygienist.
