Meet Dr. William Reed III, DDS

The dentist you choose is one of the most important decisions you will make for your long-term health. You want someone who takes the time to understand your concerns, communicates honestly, and brings genuine skill to every procedure. Finding that combination in one person is rare, but it is exactly what patients in Yukon and the surrounding Canadian County area have come to count on.

Dr. William Reed III, DDS, is the founder and lead dentist at Reed Dental Care in Yukon, Oklahoma. With more than 15 years of clinical experience, deep roots in the local community, and a philosophy built on listening before treating, Dr. Reed offers a level of care that patients notice from the very first appointment.

Education and Training

Dr. Reed was born and raised in Oklahoma, and he pursued his passion for dentistry close to home. He earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry in 2010, a program recognized for its emphasis on clinical excellence and training well-rounded practitioners to deliver quality care across a range of settings. More than 70 percent of Oklahoma’s practicing dentists are graduates of that program, and Dr. Reed is proud to count himself among them.

Over a Decade With the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma

After graduation, Dr. Reed spent more than a decade (11.5 to be exact!) providing dental care to patients with the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma in McLoud. That experience placed him in a setting where he treated a wide variety of patients with diverse needs, from routine preventative care to complex restorative procedures. The breadth of cases he handled during those years built a foundation of clinical adaptability that serves every patient he sees today.

More Than 15 Years of Hands-On Experience

By the time Dr. Reed took over his current practice, he had already built a career defined by high-volume, high-variety clinical work. That experience translates directly into the quality of care you receive at Reed Dental Care, where no case feels unfamiliar and no concern goes unaddressed.

A Story of Coming Home

There is something rare about a dentist who grew up as a patient in the same chair he now works from. Dr. Reed’s connection to this practice runs deeper than professional credentials. Dr. Alan Mauldin, the previous owner, was the same dentist Dr. Reed visited as a child. That relationship grew into a mentorship spanning dental school and beyond, with Dr. Mauldin guiding Dr. Reed before, during, and after his dental education.

Preserving What the Community Built

When Dr. Mauldin retired in 2025, Dr. Reed purchased the practice. It was a natural transition that preserved the trust, the relationships, and the continuity the community had come to expect from this office. The patients who had been coming here for years did not have to wonder whether the care would change. It did not.

Investing in Modern Technology

Taking over an established practice is a responsibility Dr. Reed does not take lightly. In addition to honoring the legacy that came before him, he has invested in modern dental technology that allows him to deliver more precise and comfortable results. Same-day CEREC crowns, low-dose digital X-rays, AI radiographic analysis, and laser dentistry are among the tools he uses to make every appointment as efficient and effective as possible.

How Dr. Reed Approaches Patient Care

Dr. Reed believes the best dental care starts with listening. Before recommending any treatment, he takes the time to understand your goals, your concerns, and your history. He wants you to feel informed and in control of every decision. That means honest explanations, straightforward recommendations, and no pressure. Whether you are coming in for a routine cleaning or exploring your options for restorative dentistry, you can expect the same thoughtful, personalized approach from start to finish.

That philosophy extends across every service our team provides. Here is a look at what patients can count on at Reed Dental Care:

Individualized treatment planning: Every recommendation is tailored to your specific goals, history, and comfort level rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Clear communication: Dr. Reed walks you through every step of your treatment so you always know what is happening and why.
Advanced technology: From same-day crowns to laser dentistry and AI radiographic analysis, our office uses modern tools to deliver precise results with less chair time.
Continuity of care: As a practice with deep community roots, we invest in long-term relationships with our patients rather than simply filling appointment slots.

That commitment to patient-centered care is what has kept families returning to this office for decades, and it is what drives every decision Dr. Reed makes today.

Life Outside the Office

When he is not caring for patients, Dr. Reed is a devoted family man. He and his wife, Tracy, have four boys, and family time is at the center of everything he does. He enjoys the outdoors, hunting, and traveling, but his favorite moments are the simple ones at home, whether playing games together or settling in for a movie night. That same warmth and approachability carry directly into the way he treats every person who walks through our doors.
