Meet Dr. Fields

An Engineer Who Found His Purpose in a Toothache

Before he ever picked up a dental drill, Dr. Fields was designing systems at Boeing and Lockheed Martin. He had an engineer’s mind: precise, curious, and wired to solve problems. Then came a toothache that changed everything.

What began as pain became a turning point. After months of searching for answers and countless drives between Tulsa and Oklahoma City, Dr. Fields learned an old bike injury had caused a hidden infection. The 18-month process to restore that single tooth opened his eyes to how powerful great dentistry can be and how deeply it can change someone’s confidence and comfort.

That experience reshaped his purpose. At 27, he left engineering to study dentistry at the University of Oklahoma, bringing his methodical approach with him. Every restoration, every implant, and every detail reflects the same precision and problem-solving he once applied to building aircraft systems, now paired with the empathy of someone who has sat in the chair himself.

Today, Dr. Fields helps patients rebuild what pain or time has taken, combining technology, craftsmanship, and compassion in ways that feel both deeply personal and beautifully exact.

A Philosophy Rooted in Empathy

For Dr. Fields, dentistry starts with a conversation, not a mirror in your mouth. Every patient deserves to be seen, heard, and deeply understood, so his approach is built on slowing down the process, truly listening to your concerns, and using crisp, clear explanations to demystify every step. It’s not about rushing to a procedure; it’s about tailoring a solution that fits your life and, in the process, restoring the inner peace and self-assurance that a healthy, vibrant smile brings.

When patients say they finally feel at ease in the chair, that’s the moment he knows he’s doing what he was meant to do.

A Foundation Built on Precision

Dr. Fields earned his Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering and Management from Oklahoma State University before completing his Doctor of Dental Surgery at the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry.

He continues to advance his skills through ongoing education in dental implants and restorative dentistry, ensuring his patients receive care that’s both precise and lasting.

Outside the Office

When he isn’t at the practice, you’ll find Dr. Fields with his wife, Melanie, and their two daughters, Milanne and Landrie. The Fields family loves to travel, from road trips to Colorado and Florida to adventures in London, Paris, Florence, and Sydney. For Dr. Fields, travel is more than a getaway; it’s a chance to keep learning. Many of his trips revolve around continuing education courses that fuel his passion for staying ahead of modern dental technology.

He’s also an enthusiastic (and sometimes exasperated) golfer.
