Compassionate Family and Sedation Dentist in Edmond, OK
A Dentist Who’s Been in Your Chair
Dr. Chandler understands what it’s like to be scared about going to the dentist. When he was a child, he only went to the dentist when he had a toothache. Regular preventive care and building a relationship with his dentist weren’t part of his experience.
Once he decided to become a dentist, Dr. Chandler vowed to be the kind of provider who listened to his patients and helped them overcome their anxiety. Because of his own patient experience, he’s well equipped to sympathize with those who are fearful of any dental procedure, even a routine cleaning.
Meet Dr. Michael Chandler, DDS
Dr. Chandler became a dentist in 2000 and has been working with patients in Edmond and the surrounding area for over 15 years. He strives to treat every patient like family, and he’s committed to helping each one restore their smile’s beauty and function. He stands behind his work and will do everything he can to guarantee customer satisfaction.
Gentle Sedation Dentistry for Anxious Patients
Because he understands what it’s like to be an anxious patient, Dr. Chandler offers sedation dentistry in Edmond, making it possible to get the care you need without worrying about dental anxiety.
Sedation Options
With three different sedation options to choose from, you can rest assured you’ll receive the quality care you deserve in a relaxed environment.
When you visit our office for a consultation, we can answer your questions about our sedation offerings:
- Nitrous oxide — You’ll breathe this gas through a mask we place over your nose; it makes you feel relaxed and calm during your visit. And because it wears off quickly, you can get back to work or school after your appointment.
- Oral sedation — For patients with special needs or who require several procedures at once, we can prescribe a pill for you to take before your appointment. You’ll be awake during your procedure, but you may not remember it. You will need someone to drive you to and from your appointment.
- IV sedation — If you suffer from extreme dental anxiety, we can administer medication intravenously; you won’t be aware of much during your visit, and we carefully monitor your sedation level and vital signs the entire time.
Helping Kids Grow Up Without Dental Fear

Our entire team focuses on making your child’s visit as fun and upbeat as possible, and when we see them from a young age, they get to know and trust us.

Family Dentistry for Every Age in Edmond
Family dentistry in Edmond is all about helping you, your children, and your parents achieve and maintain the best oral health possible. We do that by providing a wide range of services to fit your family’s unique needs.
Children’s Dentistry
We recommend bringing your child to our office for their first visit when they’re between 18 and 24 months old. During their initial visit, we’ll let them sit in the dental chair, count their teeth, and show them that going to the dentist isn’t scary.
Preventive Care and Cavity Screening
At Edmond Dental Center, we understand the importance of preventive dental care; that’s why we recommend a routine exam and cleaning every six months. This allows us to check for any dental issues, including cavities, and restore your smile before you need more extensive procedures.
Honest, Conservative Care That Saves Your Natural Teeth
Conservative dentistry is always at the forefront of Dr. Chandler’s treatment plans. He wants every patient to have a healthy smile, but because you only get one set of teeth, he does everything possible to offer conservative care options.

During your routine preventive visits, we’ll thoroughly examine your teeth and gums, checking for any concerns. And if you need more than a professional cleaning, we’ll present your treatment options and let you make the best decision for your oral health, timeline, and budget.
Technology That Supports Better Care
We understand the importance of using the latest technological advancements to streamline your care and keep you comfortable. To provide the most efficient care possible, we use digital x-rays, intraoral cameras, 3-D cone beam technology, and rotary endodontics in our Edmond office.
