Great dentist.
November 11, 2025Berj B.Verified patient
I booked this appointment on Zocdoc and apparently was charged yet never heard from the doctor, whose office I called and left a message. It seems the office was closed on the day I booked the appointment though there was no indication of that anywhere on Zocdoc.

April 4, 2023Colleen W.Verified patient
Very friendly staff! I was a new patient and the entire staff was great. Each provided me with helpful information and provided me with exceptional treatment. The doctor was lovely and answered all my questions.
November 21, 2022Lisa B.Verified patient
I'll consider my visit a white-glove treatment with Carol and staff! absolutely would and have recommended her for the dentistry she specializes in, general/family and cosmetic.
November 17, 2022Carol M.Verified patient
It was a phenomenal experience with Doctor Follette, she was very thorough, dedicated and committed to what she’s doing. I’m just a little bit nervous about the X-ray process, the tech was touching my mouth, equipments and stuff simultaneously, I was hopeful that everything was sterilized and disinfected well.
October 5, 2022Melanie J.Verified patient
Everyone was very kind and they did a great job!
April 25, 2022Tenzin D.Verified patient
Dr. Carol Folette (and her friendly staff) are honestly the best. I switched from a dental office in Culver City (where I used to live) and had 180 degree flipped experience and by that I mean it has been always been really great!!
Amy is super sweet and accommodating at the front office. The dental assistants are nice and also gentle.
Dr. Carol Folette is light-hearted, high-spirited, professional, knowledgeable and will ALWAYS give feedback or input on your questions/concerns. She is AWESOME and I feel cared for in her hands and under her supervision.
I went in today (it may be my 4th time visiting?) and I was laughing half way through while laying on the patient chair. She even put me on the books for another dental appointment to do some quick work still covered by insurance for the next day.
I truly am so thankful she takes Delta Dental…also I rarely ever write reviews, but she absolutely deserves it. Also, I support female professionals and what appears to be an all (or almost all) female dental practice. Really, really love them.
February 3, 2022Carly S.Verified patient
I have been going to Dr. Follette for years. She has staff that has also been there for a long time and that’s nice to see. Everyone is always very friendly! I have not been in 2 1/2 years due to Covid, but I was not that bad off. They have always taking great care of my teeth, encouraging good habits can you continual care.
October 26, 2021Sharon B.Verified patient
Excellent treatment!
July 23, 2021Joan S.Verified patient
Dr. Carol Follette is a wonderful dentist--kind, caring, and highly competent and experienced. It's always a pleasure to go for a visit. I recommend her without reservation!
April 27, 2021Lynn S.Verified patient
She is super efficient and never tries to up sell you to get anything you don't need. She is transparent, reliable, and overall delightful!
October 12, 2020Katie E.Verified patient
Carol & her team are best in SM!! ??
June 9, 2020Kristen H.Verified patient
She’s simply the best in the West!!!
December 26, 2019Kristen H.Verified patient
I met Carol for the first time today and really enjoyed her personality. Should also mention that I learned a thing or two, namely the procedure called free gingivitis grafting and her recommended toothpaste and wash which were new brands for me.
June 7, 2019Carol M.Verified patient
I was the first appointment of the day and had to provide insurance info. Still started right on time. Dentist is very hands on and does a lot of the work herself. She explains what she is doing and why, and is focused on patient comfort. Also, she focuses a lot on the gums and not just the teeth. Great provider.
Grant N.Verified patient
Great vibes, low wait time and clean teeth.
Like any good dental office they do offer some ancillary/extra services which you can politely decline. They didn't pressure sell or anything which is appreciated.
Thank you!
February 7, 2018Colin S.Verified patient
Dr. Follette is the best dentist around!
December 4, 2017Sharon B.Verified patient
Another great visit with Dr Follette- the whole office team is wonderful. I was seen right away and everyone on the staff was very friendly. Even though i hate dentist visits, Dr Follette and her team made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I received excellent care and will definitely be going back.
December 27, 2016Alaine M.Verified patient
Dr. Follette is a great dentist who really took time to help me with my problems. I have been having trouble with my bite and she took the time to re-construct my biteguard (that another doctor had built poorly) free of charge.
November 10, 2015Thomas G.Verified patient
I think she is a very nice person but she was a bit rough while cleaning my teeth. She also kept trying to push a night guard on me and called me three or four times after the appointment to ask if I was going to book another appointment in order for her to fit me with one (actually one of those calls was less than 2 hours after I left). So in the end was a bit put off by this method of trying so desperately to sell me something, probably won't go back to her.

I highly recommend Dr. Follette to anyone that needs their teeth cleaned. She personally did a fantastic job cleaning mine, and is very friendly! In fact, everyone in her office is happy and welcoming.
February 3, 2015Ash E.Verified patient
Very nice office and very nice hygienist but not the most gentle, a few too many accidental pokes and jabs. I do appreciate that, of the two times I've visited, there was no wait and the cleaning was done very efficiently.

Absolutely wonderful!
July 8, 2014Talmadge M.Verified patient
At my second visit she forgot she had already met me.
Not very hygienic--put on her gloves and then touched random stuff around the room. I had to ask her to put on new gloves.
She put fillings in a few of my teeth. They were painful and uncomfortable. I went to a new dentist (should've done this after day one) and they immediately redid all the fillings.
I would never recommend Dr. Follette (at least not to anyone I actually like).
August 20, 2014Lauren P.Verified patient
Well satisfied.
August 25, 2014Ron K.Verified patient
I love Dr. Follette. Very nice, caring woman. I wasn't thrill about my hygienist, who arrived late to the office and didn't do a great job of polishing my teeth after she cleaned them. However, I will definitely return to this office. All the staff are incredibly helpful, cheerful, and interested in your welfare. Very home-y environment.

Dr. Carol is a very nice lady and very professional!! I would recommend her to everybody who is looking for a professional dentist!!

She is great! Extremely friendly and helpful. Office staff was friendly and prompt. Very easy and pleasant visit.
One note: I had never had the actual dentist clean my teeth before. My teeth have never been cleaner, but just be prepared to squirm in your chair a bit as she cleans by the gums.
October 4, 2013Initials hidden
Dr. Follette is the friendliest dentist! She did my dental cleaning herself (instead of using a hygienist). I'm not sure if she cleans teeth of first time patients only? But this way she was able to carefully inspect my teeth, and found a filling about to break and also examined 2 chipped teeth. She was very thorough in all her answers, and I get the feeling she is an honest dentist who does not take advantage of patients financially. Friendly, clean office with a nice and efficient secretary as well.
November 13, 2013Sara G.Verified patient
Awesome!!! So happy I found a great dentist.
Kathryn P.Verified patient
I appreciate Dr. Follette. She is very personable. Her chairside manner is excellent. She remembers me and cares about my well-being.
April 3, 2013Sandra R.Verified patient
I was a couple of minutes late--but they didn't give me any problems. Saw me right away and still had me completed before the next patient arrived. She performed the cleaning herself, which I'm not used to--but appreciated the extra dedication. No complaints, overall!
