Where a Higher Standard of Care Meets a Genuinely Personal Touch

Red Oak Dentistry was designed to be different — and that difference shows up in ways that matter to your health, your comfort, and your confidence in the care you receive.

Precision That Goes the Extra Mile

Dr. King works under high magnification and takes the additional steps — the bevels, the retention grooves, the details most high-volume offices skip — because quality dental work done right the first time is always worth it.

Designed With Your Safety in Mind

Red Oak Dentistry is uniquely positioned to serve immunocompromised patients, those undergoing chemotherapy, and patients who remain cautious about airborne illness. The practice features closed-door treatment rooms, advanced air filtration throughout, a specialized HVAC filtration system, and N-95 protocols for high-risk patients or upon request.

One Patient. One Doctor. Every Time.

Dr. King doesn't split his attention between rooms. When you're in the chair, you have his complete focus — because that's what exceptional care actually requires.

High-End Care in a Genuinely Welcoming Environment

This is a practice where advanced technology and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere coexist effortlessly. Patients experience the best of both — a sophisticated, modern office that never feels cold or rushed.

The Experience and Philosophy Behind Red Oak Dentistry

Dr. Michael King, DMD,

Dr. Michael King, DMD, spent a decade serving as a Navy dentist before making a deliberate decision — to build the kind of practice he always believed dentistry could be. Born in London, raised across Alaska and California, and trained through the U.S. Navy's rigorous AEGD program, Dr. King brings 15 years of experience and a deeply personal approach to every patient he sees.

His philosophy is straightforward: honest service, exceptional quality, and care designed to last. At Red Oak Dentistry, patients aren't numbers in a schedule — they're people worth knowing.

Thoughtfully Designed for Patients Who Need Greater Peace of Mind

Going to the dentist requires opening your mouth — and for immunocompromised patients or those who are health-cautious, that's not something to take lightly. Red Oak Dentistry was built with exactly these patients in mind, featuring closed-door operatories, filtration systems throughout the office, advanced HVAC filtration, and N-95 availability for high-risk visits or upon request.

Because exceptional care means thinking of everything.

What Families Are Saying About Red Oak Dentistry

As a cancer patient, I chose Red Oak Dentistry because of their covid safe office. I'll stay because they're fabulous! Everyone is kind, friendly, helpful and professional. The dental work is excellent. There was no judgment. They explained everything very well. I was given options of care based on comfort level and cost. I've needed special paperwork and they're super fast and organized. I've never had such a great dental experience.

Just had my first visit with Dr. King, Bianca, and Terri and I have to say I'm thrilled with my experience. I chose this practice for their emphasis on minimizing airborne spread of disease and I'm going to stay for the professional, capable, and outstanding dental care.

While I’m sure there are some people who like going to the dentist, it’s not on my list of favorite activities… but Dr King and all of his staff make the experience a good one. Everyone I interacted with was wonderful.

Christine

If you're someone who dreads going to the dentist—don’t worry, you’re not alone. But let me tell you, Red Oak Dental completely changed my perspective!I reached out with a message, and within minutes, Terri responded by email. She was so helpful and kind, and thanks to a cancellation, I was able to get in earlier than expected. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt genuinely welcomed. Terri greeted me with a big smile and such a friendly vibe—it instantly put me at ease.

Brad

I had such a great experience! I went to get a resin infiltration done, and was beyond pleased. It was such an insecurity for me to have a big white stain on my tooth & so many dentist told me there was nothing i could do about it ! I eventually searched out of my area and found red oak dentistry and everything went so smoothly, from the consultation to the day of the appointment. It’s was a 2 hour drive to get there but it was so worth it and everyone was super nice and accommodating. 10/10 i truly recommend
