Dr. Stephen Barrett, DMD

Dr. Stephen Barrett is a general dentist at Inspire Dental in Tigard. A lifelong Oregonian, Dr. Barrett grew up in Eugene and attended the University of Oregon before earning his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU).

He began practicing in the Eugene area in 2018, where he spent several years at a federally qualified health center providing dental care to underserved communities throughout Lane County. That work also gave him the opportunity to help train the next generation of dentists, serving as adjunct clinical faculty for both Oregon Health & Science University and the Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health.

Dr. Barrett joined the Inspire Dental team in June 2026, and is now welcoming patients in Tigard.

  • Highly Recommend

    I have been going to inspire dental for the last 20 years. I have had nothing but great experiences throughout my time there. Everyone is super nice and they do a really great job letting me know what is needed and the best thing is they never recommend something unless it’s absolutely necessary. Would highly recommend!

    Very professional and friendly staff, beginning with Dr Choi! I know she has my best interests at heart and she put in my implant perfectly. I highly recommend this practice!

  • Good service

    My teeth stain and build plaque easily so regular cleanings are important. Today my regular dental hygienist patiently completed the cleaning. The dentist then carefully checked my teeth and my mouth, and reviewed a few way to improve my dental health. The emphasis was on prevention.

  • Excellence

    I have been going to this dental office for over 40 years. Some changes throughout the years new ownership and name change. Exceptional clean office with good vibes and state of art dental equipment. My recent biannual visit was just as I expected; excellence. From the greeting from the “Director of First Impressions”, the dental hygienist, Maria, who was very thorough, gentle and very communicative throughout the process to Dr Choi, who provided recommendations to maintain good oral hygiene.A+
