Richard Parkin

Dentist

Richard Parkin has 4 loves in his life: family, traveling, dentistry, and his patients. After graduating from the University of Oklahoma School of Dentistry with honors, Richard began practicing general dentistry at his father's side. Now, after 32 years of experience, he is excited to welcome his son, Russell, to his practice. Richard believes in good, quality dental work. He usually skips lunches in favor of taking time to talk with his patients. Outside of his dental practice, he finds joy traveling the world with his beautiful wife to exotic locations like Mt. Everest. He spends every free moment with his 4 children and their families where he can be found crawling around on the ground with his grandchildren who adore him.

Russell Parkin

Dentist

In preschool, Russell Parkin was asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, and his confident answer was a dentist. Twenty-five years later, Russell graduated from the University of Utah School of Dentistry with his DDS. Russell grew up around dentistry and has had over 10 years of experience working as a dental assistant with his dad, Richard, in the family practice before obtaining his DDS. One of Russell's favorite things about dentistry is the opportunity to educate and empower patients about maintaining a healthy mouth and preventing the need for extensive dental work. Russell enjoys the outdoors, especially cycling, rock climbing, and hiking. His favorite pastime is spending time with his wife, Hillary, daughter, Lila, and house-trained bunny, Daisy.
