If you have dental anxiety, this is the place to go! Dr. Wheatley and his staff are personable and put you at ease. The atmosphere is different than any other dental office I've ever been to. They have helped me overcome my fear and take steps to improve my overall health. They genuinely care about their patients, and I can't recommend them enough.

Dr Wheatley seems like a great dentist that means well. He helped me out over the phone by calling in some antibiotics since my tooth was infected. But he knew I had soonercare and most people with soonercare are low income and he told me he would work with me if I come in so I agreed because my tooth desperately needs to come out. Unfortunately to get it pulled plus the X-ray and exam it was almost $600 which I did not have, so I had no procedure done at all and still had to pay almost $300 which that was how much I was able to save up to have my tooth removed but I had to give it to his clinic when I wasn't even able to get my tooth removed and I wasn't even offered a payment plan like previously mentioned over the phone. I really feel like you should discuss pricing with patients before the exam and X-ray especially when you knew you couldn't accept my insurance, I feel like I was bullied into paying that when I wasn't even told how much it was going to cost. So I guess I'm back at square one. By the way everybody was very nice to me especially the receptionist she was the sweetest and just doing her job. Just please start discussing pricing with the uninsured patients before the bill starts racking up. Thanks.

I have had the best dental experiences at Ridge Dental. Dr. Wheatley and his staff treated me with great care and made me feel very comfortable. I had high anxiety anticipating getting my wisdom teeth out but they made it so much easier for me. I highly recommend this dentist.

So happy that I found Dr. Wheatley and his staff. I had a dental emergency and my regular dentist was booked out and couldn't get me in. (In his defense his patient load has doubled, so I understand but still needed help). I talked to Dr. Wheatley on a holiday,(REALLY) he saw me the next morning! Kind, patient, and has a great singing voice to boot! He put me at ease and now he's stuck with me as a patient. You won't be disappointed, or scared.

After going to 4 different dentist and being rejected to fix my molar. I called Dr.Wheatly office and they got me right in. The staff was so nice and helpful. Dr Wheatly was amazing! We talked about what needed to be done, came up with a plan, talked about payment before any work was done. He did a root canal on my tooth and was very gentle. He turned on Christian music which helped calm me down and went work! I love that he cares for his patients and if he can save your teeth that's what he would want to do. He's honestly the best dentist I've ever been to. And he might not know this but he and his staff are stuck me and my family! Lol They are such a blessing! Thank you Dr. Wheatly and staff! God bless you all!!

Dr. Wheatley and his staff are very professional, courteous and kind. I did not have to wait at all for my visit. They are thorough and did not rush through my cleaning even though I was the last appointment of the day. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a great dentist, he is worth the drive even if you don't live in Norman.

Dr. Wheatley and his team are phenomenal! I haven't had a dental experience like this before. The atmosphere is light, friendly, and comfortable. Dr. Wheatley and his team explained what they were doing and why which helped with any anxiety. I appreciate the time they took with me. Please check them out if you can.

Dr. Wheatley and his staff are absolutely fantastic! A few weeks before Christmas I thought I had broken my wisdom tooth and wanted to get it taken care of asap. It was a Friday and I was starting a new job on Monday. I had called several other offices to get an emergency appointment, even places that advertised for emergencies and best I got was two weeks out before calling Tecumseh Ridge Dental. Dr. Wheatley was willing to see me that day, and after evaluating my tooth he even stayed late to perform the much needed extraction. I had never had an extraction before, so I was a little anxious. Dr. Wheatley was as advertised, he talked me through the procedure and I experienced little to no pain. I will be going here for all my dental needs for now on. Thank you Dr. Wheatley for going the extra mile to help a guy out in need.

This place is the best dentist I've been to in my life, they are always very patient and accommodating. I suffer from anxiety and they always go out of their way to make me super comfortable and relaxed. I love how they play music it really helps take my mind off of being at the dentist lol, If you have anxiety or dental anxiety I recommend Mr.Wheatley and his staff they are awesome. :)

Great experience. Highly recommended. We were able to get in quickly when an emergency dental procedure was needed. Our upcoming wedding put a time constraint on our dental needs and Dr. Wheatley worked with us and we will be forever thankful for his professionalism and help. Couldn't recommend him more.
