Oklahoma is in the top 5 most successful states at Miss Teen USA in terms of number and value of placements. Oklahoma's best performance came in the 1980s through the early 1990s. After Oklahoma was taken over by Vanbros there was a six-year lapse, before Nikki Carver brought the state back into the semi-finals in 2003. Oklahoma has produced one Miss Teen USA, Allison Brown, who won in 1986 becoming the 4th state that won the Miss Teen USA title for the first time. The state's most recent placement was in 2023, when Jaselyn Rossman finished in the top 20.

Six Oklahoma teens have crossed over to win the Miss Oklahoma USA title and compete at Miss USA, with Morgan Woolard being the most successful with a 1st runner-up placement at Miss USA 2010.

Ruthie Richey of Norman, was crowned Miss Oklahoma Teen USA 2025 on March 9, 2025, at OCCC Performing Arts Center in Oklahoma. She will represent Oklahoma for the title of Miss Teen USA 2025.
