White Robin E DDS is a general oral surgery practice in Oklahoma City specializing in tooth extraction, implant placement, and bone grafting for patients referred from general dentists or seeking complex surgical cases.
White Robin E DDS operates as a surgical dental practice, distinct from general dentistry in scope and procedure complexity. The practice handles cases requiring extraction of impacted or compromised teeth, placement of dental implants, removal of oral lesions, and bone augmentation before implant work. Most patients arrive by referral from their general dentist; some self-refer for implant consultations. The practice is single-provider and operates in Oklahoma City's medical and dental district.
Extraction of impacted wisdom teeth, including surgical removal, makes up a significant share of the work. Implant placement, either single-tooth or multiple implants with bone grafting, represents the largest proportion of complex cases. The practice also performs bone grafts using autografts (patient's own bone harvested during extraction) and allograft material (processed donor bone), and removal of small oral lesions or cysts.
Sedation is offered in three tiers. Local anesthesia alone is standard for straightforward extractions. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) with local anesthesia suits patients with moderate anxiety or those undergoing longer procedures. IV sedation (administered by an anesthesiologist or trained assistant, depending on state regulations at the time of service) is available for patients with severe anxiety, those extracting multiple teeth, or undergoing complex implant grafting. Pricing for IV sedation typically adds $300 to $600 to the procedure cost; confirm current rates directly, as anesthesia fees fluctuate with provider availability.
Single-tooth implant placement runs between $3,500 and $5,500, depending on whether bone grafting is necessary; a bone graft alone adds $500 to $1,500. Wisdom tooth extraction (surgical) typically costs $800 to $2,000 per tooth. Most offices require a consultation ($100 to $200) before committing to a larger case; some practices credit this fee toward treatment if you proceed.
Oklahoma City has four oral surgery practices within the central metro area. Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, also in the city, operates a three-provider group with separate hospital privileges and trauma capability; that scale suits complex reconstruction or patients with medical comorbidities requiring hospital-based care. Landmark Oral Surgery handles high-volume implant cases and offers in-house CT scanning, reducing referral steps. White Robin E DDS suits patients seeking single-provider continuity and detailed explainer consultations; it also works well for those whose general dentist has an established referral relationship and wants to keep a case local. Choose White Robin E DDS if you want one surgeon managing your case from planning to implant delivery and restoration; choose Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates if your case involves trauma, reconstruction, or significant medical complexity.
White Robin E DDS is best for patients with impacted wisdom teeth, missing teeth suitable for implants, or bone deficiencies treatable with straightforward grafting. Patients with dental anxiety managed by sedation fit the practice model well. Those needing root canal therapy should ask their general dentist; endodontists handle that specialty. Patients with oral cancer, jaw fractures, or major reconstructive surgery should ask for a referral to a hospital-affiliated group. Those pursuing implants but unwilling to wait 4 to 6 months for bone integration should understand that faster timelines are not possible with current bone biology and are suspicious of claims otherwise.
Initial consultations typically last 45 to 75 minutes. The surgeon reviews your medical and dental history, examines the surgical site, and often takes X-rays (standard 2D) or a cone-beam CT scan if implants are planned. The scan shows bone height, width, and density, which determines whether a bone graft is necessary before implant placement. The surgeon discusses options: extraction alone, extraction with implant placement in one visit, or staged approach (extract, graft, wait, then implant). A detailed cost breakdown and timeline are provided in writing. Most practices ask for 50 percent down at booking and the balance on the day of surgery.
White Robin E DDS operates Monday through Friday, generally 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with extended hours one or two evenings per week (verify at the time of booking, as this varies seasonally). The office is located in Oklahoma City's central medical zone and offers standard parking in an adjacent lot or street parking. Public transit (METRO) service to the area is limited; driving or car service is the practical choice. Arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home if you receive IV sedation; you cannot drive for the remainder of the day.
White Robin E DDS fills a niche for straightforward surgical cases managed by one consistent provider, particularly attractive for patients whose general dentist maintains a strong referral relationship and for those prioritizing detailed surgical consultation over high-volume capacity.
