Being a leading dental office for oral care and dental hygiene in Phoenix, AZ & Sun City, AZ, we here at Arizona Dental take our patient’s dental hygiene and oral care with the utmost seriousness and often adapt specialized treatment plans to suit the needs of each patient individually. The general health, well-being, and overall longevity of a person is greatly dependent on an adoption of preventative oral care and proactive dental hygiene practices. Moreover, the more diligent and consistent one is regarding dental hygiene, the less like they are to experience health problems caused by poor oral care; such as gingivitis, tooth decay/loss, plaque, cavities, halitosis (smelly breath), periodontitis, or even oral cancer(s). Please get in touch to learn more about proper denal hygiene!
There are several reasons or circumstances that can prompt a person to seriously consider the benefits of dental implants as a means to address a particular dental issue; including an old crown that has become detached, a broken veneer, or simply the age of a tooth (or set of teeth). To that effect, we encourage all local patients here in Phoenix, Arizona & Sun City, Arizona to take full advantage of our full-range service list of dental implant coverage; including dental implant consultations, specialty fittings, custom impressions, and personalized castings. Please contact our experienced staff to learn more about what dental implant options are best suited for your particular needs or if you would like to schedule an immediate dental implant appointment.
With recent breakthroughs in the denture industry in terms of durability, natural appearance, affordability, and wide-spread application reaching unprecedented heights, gone are the days of dentures that are gaudy, blocky, or just undeniably noticeable when viewed. On the contrary, many tremendous strides have been made in the denture industry to not only improve aesthetics or reduce the previously-overwhelming cost of personalized dentures but many great improvements have been made in their actual application, oral comfort, and long-term usability as well. As such, we maintain an active understanding & appreciation of dentures and how they can positively impact the lives of our patients; regardless of age, current dental condition, or the circumstances prompting the need for dentures in the first place.
Showcasing a smile resplendent with cleanliness and brimming with confidence is a concept that nearly everyone can appreciate, however, not every person can currently lay claim to wearing such a smile. Whether it’s due to age, poor dental hygiene practices, a sporting mishap, prolonged smoking, or an oral deficiency, there are a multitude of reasons why many do not unveil their teeth whilst smiling or even conversing with another person. Luckily, through our extensive cosmetic dentistry coverage here at Arizona Dental, many such instances of smile apprehension or shy oral displays are a discomfort of the past! We offer dental bonding, veneers (Lumineers), invisible dental correction (braces), deep cleaning, teeth whitening, snap-on smiles, and complete smile makeovers. Get in touch with us to learn more or schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation.
Determining what options are available to a person seeking to improve their oral care, introduce better dental hygiene, or address a specific dental/oral issue, such as a broken tooth or crooked smile, is extremely important for a variety of reasons. As fortune would have it, we here at Arizona Dental offer comprehensive oral exams and dental consultations in order to equip our patients with not only viable dentistry & oral care but to also impart a clearer understanding of the importance of quality dental attention as well. At your convenience, please feel to contact us directly to schedule your dental exam or dental consultation!
While we do often fulfill more routine or common dental procedures, such as teeth whitening, cleaning, or extractions, it is worth noting that our knowledgeable dental staff are well-versed in specialized dental care as well. This can include dental implants & dentures, bridges & crowns, fillings & root canals, as well as efficacy in specialty procedures, such as sedation, imaging, x-rays, and certain oral surgeries. Please get in touch with our dental teams directly if you are interested in learning more or have specific questions regarding our specialized dental care.

Client Name - ★★★★★
As a preferred dental office in both Phoenix, AZ & Sun City, AZ, we’ve embraced the importance of our responsibility towards our dental patients and always aspire to provide the same stellar, patient-specific approach that our reputation was founded on. It is well-understood by our licensed dentist and trained dental staff here at Arizona Dental that each dental patient that visits either our Sun City, AZ or Phoenix, AZ office is inherently unique in their dentistry or oral care needs and an equally diverse approach towards offering our oral/dental care is absolutely essential. To that effect, we offer a wide range of dental coverage that can include: oral care, cleaning, crowns, implants, cosmetic dentistry, dentures, dental hygiene, and even emergency dental services.
For over a quarter of a century, we've been crafting & creating smiles that are both inviting & confident as well as empahtic and contagious! Armed & confident with a dazzling smile of both symmetry and vibrance, our patients are able to appreciate aspects of life that have since been abandoned, ignored, or largely deemed untenable. Such as beaming a smile for photos, taking a more active involvement with even the most mudane of verbal intercourse (conversations), or simply partaking in certain foods with a long-forgetton or never-realized gusto.
There are a wealth of dental options that we offer local Arizona residents who are interested in revitalizing their smile, of which can include the following:
We encourage our patients (both current/active as well as prospective/potential) to contact our smile experts here at Arizona Dental if you are seeking a safe, yet sure-fire, way to make the absolute most of your smile!
Whether Dr. Joe Gerard and his supportive team of dental assistants & technicians are needed to address an emergency dental situation, such as a dislodged crown or cracked tooth, or if our collective dental experience is best directed towards a complete makeover of a patient’s smile via dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, or dentures; our unwavering mission here at Arizona Dental is to ultimately put our patient’s best smile forward each and every visit.
Implants can replace single or multiple missing teeth with a natural look and strong bite, provided your gums and jawbone are healthy. We’ll review your medical history, 3D imaging, and habits (like smoking) to confirm candidacy.
Traditional dentures rest on the gums, while implant-supported options “snap” to dental implants for stability. Many patients report better chewing, speech, and comfort with fewer sore spots.
With proper home care and regular visits, many crowns and bridges last 10–15 years or longer. Nightguards, good flossing under bridges, and avoiding very hard foods can extend their lifespan.
When supervised by a dentist, whitening is considered safe and effective for natural enamel. It won’t lighten crowns, veneers, or fillings, and we’ll screen for causes of discoloration first.
Many practices use digital scanners and in-office milling to deliver strong, tooth-colored restorations in one visit. Candidates are selected based on tooth structure, bite, and fracture risk.
We tailor comfort with calming communication, numbing gels, nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”), and—when appropriate—oral conscious or IV sedation. Your medical history and medications guide safe choices.
Most patients experience mild swelling and soreness for 2–3 days; stitches are often removed in about a week. Implants typically need a few months to fuse (osseointegrate) before final teeth are attached.
