Dr. Brett Amedro Boulder CO

Dr. Brett Amedro

Dr. Brett Amedro, DDS, completed his Bachelor's in Biology at Hartwick College in Oneonta, NY. He then completed a Master of Physiology degree at North Carolina State University. After completing his Master's degree, he obtained his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of Michigan (Go Blue!). To further his clinical dental skills, Dr. Amedro then completed a one-year, optional general practice residency at the Veteran's Hospital of Denver. While there, he learned advanced techniques in oral surgery, dental implants, root canals, and periodontal treatments. 

Before owning and operating Boulder Family Dental Center, Dr. Amedro had his private practice for ten years in Frisco, CO, where he provided outstanding dental care for the people of Summit County, Colorado. 

Dr. Amedro incorporates the newest, most up-to-date dental technologies in his practice. He uses the most modern digital x-ray system, digital impressions, and intraoral scanning, places and restores dental implants, and uses a diode laser to improve his restorative and crown and bridge work. Ultimately, he believes investing in his practice with new technology allows him to deliver the highest quality dentistry to the people of Boulder and the surrounding communities. He has a calm and friendly chairside manner that puts his patients at ease. 

Dr. Amedro consistently attends continuing education seminars. Each year, he exceeds the continuing education hours required by the Colorado Dental Board. Annually, he also attends the regional Rocky Mountain Dental Convention. His clinical interests include digital dentistry, dental implant surgery, grafting techniques, root canal treatments, and conservative restorative dentistry.

Outside the office, Dr. Amedro enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife and children. He has been involved in organized baseball much of his life, playing and umpiring the game at the collegiate level. He currently serves on the South Boulder Little League board and is active in the Boulder Thunderbirds baseball organization. He is a past member of the Summit County Colorado Youth Baseball board. Additionally, Dr. Amedro coaches girls softball in the Indian Peaks Girls Softball Association in Boulder.
