Dr. Garrick O. McAnear grew up in Poteau, OK. He earned his Associates Degree from Carl Albert State College in Poteau. Following graduation, he continued his undergraduate studies at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond. He obtained his Bachelor of Biology Degree from UCO in 1998. He was accepted into the Universityof Oklahoma College of Dentistry in the fall of 1998 and spent the next four years working on his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). In 2002, he graduated from OUCOD and began practicing dentistry for a group practice in Oklahoma City.
A year and a half later he opened the doors of his own private practice in a small retail space on Hefner Road and didnt look back once. He served his patients there for over 14 years. With a staff of 9 and growing out of space quickly, it was time to build. So in the Spring of 2017, he moved into his new facility to continue providing a great dental experience and to accommodate his growing population of patients and his growing staff of 12. He resides in northwest Oklahoma City with his wonderful wife, Heather since 1999, and their two daughters, Madison and Lynnley and their son Bo. Garrick is passionate about the field of dentistry and taking great care of his patients.I love working with people and so many families. I want to see my patients smile. I want to give themthe best care possible. That gives me great satisfaction.

My experience is always so relaxing & calm at Cedar Creek, which probably sounds crazy for a dentist office. Every room & detail are intentional with windows looking out to trees & calming, scenic videos playing overhead. The staff is all fantastic as well!

Amazing... I don't mind going to see my dentist, because they just take care of you. We are not perfect & we don't always do what we know we need to do. That's life, but they don't shame you for it. They just take care of you. Thank you all for the positive support.

Let me start by saying, I have a fear of going to the dentist. I had a bad experience prior that caused a lot of anxiety. The staff at Cedar Creek is welcoming and great to work with. The assistants show great care and make me feel comfortable each time I go in. Dr. McAnear is professional, authentic, and has great bedside manner. He takes great pride in his work and is highly recommended. If you are considering Cedar Creek Dental look no further.

It would be impossible to only list one thing I appreciated about this visit. I appreciate the friendly way I am greeted as I come through the door. I appreciate the little ways the hygienist makes me feel comfortable- she introduced herself, offered me a blanket, suctioned frequently, explained what she was doing. Dr. McAnear was professional as always and available even for a second consult. Checking out was even a pleasure. i feel very cared for on my visits. Thank you.

I suffer from social anxiety so getting out of the house to do anything can be excruciating at times. ESPECIALLY for the dentist. However immediately walking through the doors i was welcomed with amazing smiles and wonderful atmospheric energy. It made it very easy to settle down and become comfortable very quickly. All staff was so nice, and Dr. McAnear is absolutely the most friendly dentist ive ever met! 100/10 highly reccomend!
