Meet the Doctors
A group of Stillwater dentists looking to make a lasting impression on your smile.
Dr. Rosalie Perpich
Offering comfort throughout your visit.
“My job is to give you my professional opinion and enough information for you to make a comfortable decision. A decision that works for you, your goals, and your family.”
Dr. Perpich spent six years in the Minnesota National Guard as a medic before becoming a dentist and opening her practice in 2002. Today, she enjoys working with older adults in her satellite office at Boutwells Landing. Dr. Perpich continues her pursuit for excellence in dentistry through ongoing training to bring you faster, better, and more effective solutions.
She’s very involved with the Minnesota Dental Association and is the immediate past President. She continues to serve on the Minnesota Dental Foundation board since 2008, Mission of Mercy, Hope Dental Clinic in St. Paul, and has lectured for the University of Minnesota geriatric dental mini-residency program. Outside of the office, Dr. Perpich enjoys yoga, walking, painting, woodworking, photography, and volunteering. Dr. Perpich likes to spend her free time with her sons Will and Andrew.

Dr. Tricia Carlson
Putting you at ease while listening to your concerns.
“I like to find common interests with people and find that listening to patient concerns and past experiences helps provide a safe place. Making people smile goes a long way toward building trust, and we smile a lot here!”
Dr. Carlson traveled with her parents on short mission trips to Africa, where she shadowed the dentist and discovered her calling. Today, she loves working with children and anxious patients to create positive dental experiences from a young age. Dr. Carlson goes above and beyond to put patients at ease, listen to their concerns, and develop treatment into the best care options.
Before finding the right team and joining Stillwater Family Dental, she worked as a dentist in different northern metro area practices. Dr. Carlson enjoys furthering her education with Spear Education study club and Kois Center for Dental Excellence.
