Meet Our Doctor

Dr. Annissa Michael offers compassionate, personalized and comprehensive dental care at Boulder Valley Dental Center. Here, patients are welcomed as guests and treated like family.

Dr. Annissa received her bachelor’s in biology at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. She also received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the Indiana University School of Dentistry in Indianapolis where she served as the President of the American Student Dental Association and sat on the Indiana state Dental Board of Trustees. She practiced as an award-winning clinical research fellow and even founded an a cappella group called “Vertical Dimension” that performed at countless university events.

Dr. Annissa is committed to advancing her knowledge and skills through continuing education and has committed thousands of hours over the years to learning more about all facets of dentistry so that she might better serve you, your family, our team and our community.

In addition to private practice, Dr. Annissa served on the American Dental Association® advisory board and volunteers with numerous local and national dental community service efforts, including Colorado’s own Mission of Mercy.

As your dentist, Dr. Annissa’s goal is to create long-lasting relationships while providing patients with healthy, confident smiles. It is her life’s purpose to help patients overcome their dental fears and anxieties by providing a safe, caring, judgement-free dental facility, building trust, and helping you make informed decisions about your personalized dental care planning. She believes in the significance of prevention, and that no dental treatment is superior than your natural teeth. She also believes that when dental work becomes necessary, being able to communicate your dental needs with transparency is of the utmost importance. Her aim is to provide evidence-based treatment in a safe environment with advanced technology and minimal discomfort.

Dr. Annissa was born and raised in the Midwest and met her husband while they were both attending grad school. When she is not at work, study clubs or involved in some form of community service, Dr. Annissa fully immerses herself in the outdoor lifestyle Colorado has to offer. She enjoys hiking year-round with friends, meeting new adventure acquaintances as a regional ambassador of Women Who Explore, camping with her fur babies, and mountain biking and skiing with her husband, Tyler.
