Dentist in Oklahoma City
Dr. Michael Kirk: OKC’s Best
As the founder of Grand Dental Studio in Oklahoma City, Dr. Kirk has spent over 30 years practicing dentistry for all ages, defining and refining what he calls “Oklahoma’s Best Dental Experience™.”
"The absolute best part about being a dentist is the opportunity to really get to know those I serve. The relationships that I have been fortunate enough to develop with my patients over the past 30 or so years are priceless.
Our mission is to provide general, cosmetic, sedation, and implant dental care in a way that changes your perception of dentistry. From essential preventive care, sudden emergency dentistry, and cosmetic smile makeovers, we want you to feel comfortable every step of the way.”
Why Dr. Kirk Chose Dentistry
Originally from southeastern Oklahoma and raised in Tulsa, Dr. Kirk’s path to dentistry was built on his natural fascination with science and innate desire to help people. After attending Jenks High School, he earned a track scholarship to Texas State University.
“I considered other medical professions, but I saw a connection between art and science in dentistry that really spoke to me.”
He went on to graduate from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry in 1993 and has been learning ever since.

Life Outside of Dentistry
A devoted family man, Dr. Kirk beams when talking about his wife, Sandra, and children.
“I’m a proud dad of two Eagle Scouts. Watching them grow, helping guide Troop 4 as Scoutmaster—it’s been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.”
Outside the office, he stays active with yoga at OKCGCC, walking, and cheering on the OKC Thunder. Dr. Kirk and Sandra are involved with the OKC Ballet and Oklahoma Contemporary among other arts organizations. They are members of St. Luke’s Methodist Church and also share a passion for real estate, having renovated several homes and designed two dental practices together.
"Balance is important to me. Living a healthy lifestyle, spending time with my wife, daughter, and two sons, and taking time to be grateful are part of my daily routine."
