Meet Dr. Cha
Dr. Jerome Cha received a doctorate in dental surgery from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry in 1993. For 31 years, he practiced cosmetic and restorative dentistry in Tulsa, Oklahoma, becoming the first dentist in Oklahoma to attain accreditation by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry in 2013.
In 2025, Dr. Cha opened a cosmetic dental clinic in Edmond, Oklahoma, focused on complete smile and facial rejuvenation. He has lectured internationally on the art and science of cosmetic dentistry, published several articles on cosmetic dentistry, and continues to provide education for dental professionals through his teaching institute, DentalQS.
Dr. Cha believes that cosmetic dentistry should not only restore and enhance a smile but also improve facial balance, comfort, and function and ensure lifetime longevity while also reversing facial aging through the design and position of the teeth. He is also a strong proponent of a holistic approach to aesthetic rejuvenation by utilizing the latest bioscience and technologies, such as Bio-PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin), Exosomes, pulse lasers, and nutritional supplements to maximize his patients’ physiology for regeneration and maintenance.
Dr. Cha’s other passions in life include studies in health and fitness — with an emphasis on mental health — landscape photography, and adventure travels. Dr. Cha has plunged into the Antarctic and Arctic oceans, summited Mt. Kilimanjaro, climbed Mt. Rainier, and photographed extensively worldwide, from Patagonia to Greenland.
