OKC-OMS: Oral Surgery & Dental Implants - Yukon

I had an outstanding experience with OKC OMS. Dr. Miyake and his team were amazing through every step of the process — genuinely friendly, incredibly helpful, and consistently reassuring. They made everything smooth and stress‑free, and their professionalism and kindness really stood out. I couldn’t have asked for a better team. Highly recommend.

Dr Myiaki has the best chairside manner. He is very easy to talk to and understand. Dr Myiaki explains his procedure and will continue to answer my questions until I understand. He is very talented and has an impeccable staff. They work with you and all my experiences here have been positive. I receive a follow up xall from the staff post procedure and a vouple days later from Dr Myiaki himself. The service I receive leaves absolutely nothing lacking. I trust this place.

Editing to add that Dr. Lamer reviewed our case and agreed that the billing error was unfortunate and accuracy in estimates was of upmost important to him. I'm grateful to report that he was able to resolve the third party billing estimate discrepancy, and to ensure this sort of billing error doesn't happen again place new procedures for estimates. Thank you so much Dr. Lamer. I took my daughter to OKC-OMS for wisdom teeth removal. We were advised that based on the insurance verification, insurance covered every thing but the *recommended-not required* exposures of the molars. We would need to pay the $580 for this, which we did. Dr. Lamer and team and staff were all professional and the process was as smooth as could be expected. You always sign off that you will have to pay anything the insurance doesn't, as we did. And you expect differences over brand of anesthesia or a particular additional service that was unexpected mid surgery or something small. However, it turns out we were out of network, and we were balance billed another $515. So be ware. It turns out the office made a assumption in the insurance verification, that the out of net work insurance's statement that it would pay 60% meant that it would pay 60% of what they wanted to charge rather than 60% of what the insurance says it would allow. That seems like that was an irrationally or ignorantly optimistic assumption. Google agrees they should have known better. *ALMOST ALWAYS* AI Overview: "When insurance covers 60% for out-of-network (OON) providers, it almost always means 60% of the insurer’s allowed amount (or UCR - Usual, Customary, and Reasonable rate), not the doctor's actual charge. Because OON providers don't contract with insurers, the "allowed amount" is usually much lower than the bill, resulting in balance billing for the difference. " This is what I would call detrimental reliance. This billing staff error prevented our free choice to make an informed decision to seek an in network provider or look for estimates from other doctors. It almost feels like they must have done this on purpose to secure our business. I mean, how many insurances can you deal with in a day as a doctors billing office and not know its safest to go with the allowed amount for an estimate. I don't see an option other than it was intentional and malicious, or ignorant first day on the job type thing and should have been 100% written off as their office mistake. Now, the billing office did agree to write off half of the balance bill ($515/2=$257). Which I appreciate. However, I would NOT have agreed to the the exposures if I had a correct estimate ($1095 the actual total that should have been on the estimate instead of $580). One looses their federal protections under surprise billing in CHOOSING an out of network provider. But for reference anything over $400 would have been considered negligence in informing a patient of billing. And I honestly don't remember being informed they were out of network for us, only assured the insurance covered what they needed. So, 100%, I wont go back. I do have other kids, so I definitely learned my lesson about that office.

Staff was lowkey sassy when even trying to set up the consult, finally got it scheduled - When advised my son had an allergy to Fentanyl (found out after surgery when in nicu) Dr asked “how’d you find out about that allergy, did he take it recreationally or…?” And kinda trailed off. When I mentioned an opioid free after care he said something about that being the trend now. Took 6 months to finally schedule an appointment- no call back from office I had to repeatedly call myself just kept getting told insurance issues and they would call me. Come to find out Dr was trying to add something extra (moving a tooth??) and insurance wasn’t wanting to approve/pay for something not necessary (or even told me about.) the day before the appointment I get not one, not two, but THREE calls to confirm the appointment. Good to know your phone works when the last 6 months I couldn’t get a single phone call regarding anything! Ultimately took it as a sign from the universe that this facility does not need to provide any services for us and I will reach out to another (hopefully more respectful/communicative) business.

I truly appreciated Dr. Lamer and his entire team. Their professionalism and quality of care stand out in every interaction we had. They made sure we had all the information necessary to make an informed decision, and they delivered the care we needed promptly and with exceptional skill.

Dr. Carlson and his entire team took such good care of me. I had a lot of anxiety and they were so understanding and patient with me. They calmed me down during the IV process, and cared for me so well when I woke up. I am super thankful to have had such a wonderful experience getting my wisdom teeth extracted.

I came in after receiving an implant and a root canal extraction from another oral surgeon and I was in excruciating pain (I endured this pain for over a week) and was really hoping this doctor could help. I came in. He looked at my X-rays and he told me it was a normal reaction to the large extraction I had done. Said I would just need to wait it out. He did not fix anything, but they definitely charged me for the visit. I knew something wasn’t right but he wasn’t listening like the surgeon who did the actual procedure wasn’t listening. I went to another oral surgeon later on the same day and he removed the bone graft and found a horribly infected dry socket, packed it with medicated gauze and I immediately had relief. Which is all I wanted. I lived with a bone graft poking a dry socket for over a week, doc, I wasn’t seeking pain meds - I was seeking a doctor to fix what was wrong. I wasn’t going to leave a review until I just got word (because I’m trying to get a refund from the doctor that did the procedure due to the crooked implant seen on X-rays and the $600 I spent at other surgeons trying to get a dry socket packed) that this office told the place that did the procedure that I came in that day and was med seeking, which confirmed what I felt that day in this office. It was genuinely the most unseen I have ever felt by a doctor.
