Dr. Eric Mead DDS
Giving people a confident smile that can change their life — that's my passion. I understand everyone's budget is different, and at Smile Today, we're here to help you find options that work for you.
I've been drawn to dentistry since I was a teenager, when I watched my grandmother struggle with dentures that never fit right. She was never able to get a new set that felt comfortable, and that stuck with me. I wanted to make sure my future patients never had to go through the same thing — and today, giving people the best possible denture experience is one of my biggest passions in practice.
I grew up in Heavener, a small town in eastern Oklahoma at the foothills of the Ouachita National Forest. I earned my bachelor's degrees in chemistry and biology from Southeastern Oklahoma State University, then went on to the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry, where I received my dental degree in 2014.
After graduation, I moved back home to eastern Oklahoma and practiced there for five years before returning to the Oklahoma City area. Since then, I've pursued additional training in dental implants, bone grafting, and dentures to bring more advanced options to my patients.
For years, my dream was to open a practice with an in-house lab, so patients could get convenient, high-quality care — often in a single visit. That dream became a reality here in Yukon, thanks in large part to Jennifer Wheeler, our lab technician. With over 25 years of experience, Jennifer creates beautiful, lifelike dentures that have helped countless patients smile with confidence again. Together, our team is committed to giving you excellent, predictable results.
On the clinical side, my wife, Jennifer, is one of our dental assistants — and we think she'll quickly become your favorite. We live in Yukon, just about ten minutes from the office, with our three dogs: Chloe, Dani, and Piper. Family and friends mean a lot to us, so we spend a lot of time traveling across the state to see them. Outside the office, you'll usually find me playing golf or guitar.
Thank you for stopping by — we hope to see you soon!
