At Southern Woods Dental Care, were passionate about keeping your oral health on the right track and ensuring you have positive experiences each time you visit us. Our style of care is different because we take the time to get to know our patients and are truly looking out for their best interest. Below, you can learn about some of the traits that make our practice stand out from others in our area.

Our team has created a welcoming, warm family atmosphere that allows patients of all ages to feel comfortable and at-ease. Unlike larger practices, we take the time to learn our patients names and about their lives. Not only does this help us form an open line of communication with our patients, but it also helps us custom-tailor treatment plans to reduce their risk of developing oral health issues. With over 20 years of service to our community of Tulsa, we hope to continue seeing generations of families in their dental home.

If we inform you of an oral health situation that needs to be taken care of, well walk you through a treatment plan and answer any questions that you may have about it. If you feel comfortable, we will do our very best to take care of the situation that same day, so you dont have to worry about coming back or taking additional time out of your schedule at a later date. If for some reason we aren't able to treat you that day, we will schedule a convenient time for you to come back for treatment.

We believe that in order to provide high-quality dentistry, you need to stay on top of the cutting-edge discoveries and advancements in your field. Thats why our practice is equipped with the latest proven technology to make each of your treatments and checkups as thorough and streamlined as possible.
