Dr. Tara Carroll

Dr. Carroll knows firsthand what a transformed smile can do. At just seven years old, she began orthodontic treatment and spent more than five years in braces. The confidence she gained inspired a career dedicated to helping others feel that same joy.

Dr. Carroll completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Central Florida and earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine in 2005, beginning her career in a corporate practice before founding her own practice in 2007. After a decade of growth in the Larkridge Shopping Center, the practice relocated to a larger Erie office in 2017 and rebranded as Carroll Family & Cosmetic Dentistry in 2023.

With more than 20 years of experience, Dr. Carroll is passionate about prevention-focused care and treating the whole patient, believing oral health is deeply connected to overall wellness. She and her team proudly serve families across Erie, Broomfield, Lafayette, Westminster, Thornton, Brighton, Firestone, Frederick, Dacono, and Longmont, and are active supporters of local schools, sports teams, and community events.

Outside the office, Dr. Carroll is a fitness enthusiast who runs, walks, lifts, and trains her dogs, who are frequent office visitors. She loves photography, exploring new cities and countries, and has recently discovered a talent for designing custom cabinetry. A fun fact: she played rugby in college.
