Dr Julie Babcock

Dr. Babcock grew up in Tulsa, initially attended the University of Kansas, and received her D.D.S. (Doctor of Dental Surgery) from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry. She has been in practice since 1996, after 9 years of mentoring associateships in Johnson County, she opened her current practice in 2004. The first 9 years taught her about different levels of care. During several associateships, volume and speed were the main emphasis, rather than patient focused care. It was exhausting and Dr. Babcock felt that patients were not receiving the complete, quality care they deserved. Most of these patients never learned what dental disease is, why they had it, and why their problems kept recurring. They found themselves constantly needing care and spending money. Dr. Babcock discovered that a true relationship with her patients is invaluable. Trust isn’t built in a 30-second exam. It is built by spending time listening to and understanding each person’s individual needs, fears, and expectations. Her patients benefit from the exceptional experience her small practice offers. She believes Small is Beautiful and treats one patient at a time, viewing each patient as a unique individual, with unique needs, while prioritizing biocompatible materials, minimally invasive procedures, and preventive measures. Her definition of success is leaving at the end of the day knowing that she changed lives. Dr. Babcock invests extensive amounts of time and finances in professional development, seeing her diploma only as a license to begin the learning journey.
