About us
Spring Creek Dental is a local, family-friendly practice that offers comprehensive dental care for patients of all ages and backgrounds. Dr. Darrell Guttery and his team bring over 30 years of combined experience in the dental field. Our familiar faces and calm atmosphere make everyone feel right at home when they’re here. Because we’re small, we’re easily accessible any time of day. After all, our patients are our top priority.
Carrying On a Legacy
Spring Creek Dental acquired Larry Withers Family & Cosmetic Dental in early 2019. Dr. Larry Withers is highly regarded as one of the best dentists in Oklahoma City. When he decided to enter retirement, Dr. Guttery purchased his practice with the intention of upholding the integrity of the business Dr. Withers spent his entire career building. Today, Spring Creek Dental remains committed to this decades-long tradition of quality patient care.
Advanced Dental Care
We understand that today’s dental care is better than yesterday’s. That’s why Spring Creek Dental pursues and invests in the latest, state-of-the-art technology to ensure you always get the best dental care available.
Some of the advanced technology we currently utilize in our practice includes:

- iTero element® Scanner
With this technology, we can perform a wider range of procedures more efficiently and with less pain. From same-day crowns to dental implants, our adoption of modern technology allows us to better serve you. We’re committed to continuing our search for future opportunities to provide even better care for our patients.
A True Partnership
Our collaborative approach to dental care ensures your wants and needs are always met. After thorough, comprehensive examinations, we recommend treatment plans that meet your individual needs. By working together and taking the time to discuss all available options, you remain at the center of the decision-making process. When leaving our office, we want you to look good and feel good about your teeth.
