R. Stephen Jones D.D.S.

I am an Adair County native and a 1985 graduate of Stilwell High School. I then went on to attend Northeastern State University and was accepted into the University Of Oklahoma College Of Dentistry after just three years of undergraduate school. I was probably destined to be a dentist with my father being a dentist and my mother a dental hygienist.

I graduated from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry in 1992 following in my father’s footsteps (Dr. Gary Jones Class of 1977) becoming the first Father-Son graduates from the school. Upon graduation from Dental School, I worked for Cherokee Nation for four years working at the Redbird Smith Clinic in Sallisaw and the Wilma P. Mankiller Clinic in Stilwell. I then joined my father’s practice in 1996, and remained there until 2004 when I joined Dr. Mark and formed Family Dental Care of Tahlequah, now known as Premiere Dentistry.

I am an active member of First Baptist Church in Tahlequah, and I enjoy being a part of the Tahlequah community. I currently serve on the Industrial Trust Authority of Tahlequah and am the 2008-2009 Tahlequah Chamber of Commerce President.

Family is my main priority. My wife, Angela, and I have three children: Lindsey, Spencer, and Wyatt. All three of our children are very active in sports and during the school year you can always find us at some Tahlequah Tiger sporting event, ranging from volleyball, football, basketball, track or tennis. During the summers we like to relax and spend our free time RVing, traveling or just camping at Lake Tenkiller.
