Dr. Tara Stanford, DMD, is a devoted and accomplished general dentist at Dental Depot. She completed her undergraduate studies at Oklahoma State University before earning her dental degree from the Midwestern University College of Dental Medicine. Dr. Stanford’s passion for dentistry can be traced back to her childhood when she aspired to become a dentist after her own positive experiences with dental care. This passion only grew stronger as she got older, leading her to shadow her former pediatric dentist as she pursued her career in dentistry. Today, Dr. Stanford is dedicated to providing high-quality dental care and helping patients achieve and maintain healthy smiles.
Dr. Indraja Chacko brings a wealth of experience and a deep passion for patient care to her dental practice. She earned her dental degree from Sree Sai Dental College in India and completed her advanced education at the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry. Growing up in India, Dr. Chacko saw firsthand the challenges of limited access to dental care, especially in rural communities. This inspired her to pursue dentistry with the goal of making a meaningful impact in the lives of her patients.
Now living in Edmond, Dr. Chacko takes pride in caring for people from all walks of life and helping them achieve healthy, confident smiles. Outside of the clinic, she enjoys baking and has a bit of a sweet tooth, which she’s happy to share with family and friends. Dr. Chacko’s husband works as a medical physicist at Stillwater Cancer Center, where he helps treat cancer patients with radiation therapy. Together, they stay busy raising their energetic daughter.

In 1978, Navy veteran Dr. Glenn Ashmore opened the first Dental Depot office in Oklahoma City’s historic Linwood neighborhood as a small, family-owned private practice. Although that building burned down in 2001, during the construction of the second Oklahoma City Dental Depot location, community support helped us recover quickly. More than 45 years later, we’re proud to have just as many locations throughout Texas, Arizona, Missouri, and Oklahoma, with 25 here in the Sooner State alone!
Dental Depot is a different kind of dental company. Even though we continue to grow, we always stay true to what Dr. Ashmore started—a commitment to delivering superior, compassionate, and accessible dental care with a friendly smile and at an affordable price.
Every Dental Depot is doctor-owned, which means our providers have the freedom and flexibility to provide you and your family with the care you truly need, not the services they need to meet a quota. We’re among the top three “Opportunity Oklahoma” employers with more than 545 people, and we believe in treating every single person—both patient and employee—with the utmost dignity and respect. Whether it’s educating our patients on their best treatment options or encouraging our team members to create their own futures, at Dental Depot, we do what’s right for the people we care for and serve, because it’s the right thing to do.
Best cleaning I have ever gotten. The staff is super friendly and it didn’t hurt at all. I would recommend this place to anyone! I was highly nervous because I have recently moved to Edmond and don’t like change, but I had to change all my doctors. This was a great choice! My entire family goes here.
I can’t say enough about all of the staff at this location, extremely professional and compassionate. They fit me into their schedule when 4 other dentists turned me away on a Friday afternoon for one of the worst toothaches I’ve ever had. I couldn’t imagine going the whole weekend in that amount of pain and they made sure that didn’t happen, they went above and beyond when others refused just because it was a Friday. So happy this location was opened and staffed with people who truly care about the people they see.
I’ve been terribly afraid of the dentist since a bad expiration almost 10 years ago. Ended up having an emergency. They got me in quickly and took care of me. They eased my fears and understood my anxiety. They went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Made me wish I hadn’t have put everything off for so long. I will be back!
