General Dentistry in Phoenix, AZ
Comprehensive General Dentistry for Every Stage of Life
Looking for a family dentist in Phoenix who handles everything from routine cleanings to restorative care? At Union Hills Family Dental Care & Orthodontics, our general dentistry services are designed to keep your whole family healthy, comfortable, and confident in their smiles. Whether you are coming in for a routine checkup or need a same-day solution for a broken tooth, our team is here to make every visit feel easy and worthwhile.
General dentistry is the foundation of lifelong oral health. It covers the preventive, diagnostic, and restorative care that keeps small problems from becoming big ones. Our Phoenix practice has been serving the community since 2005, and we take pride in building long-term relationships with patients who trust us with their smiles year after year.
What Our General Dentistry Services Include
We offer a wide range of general dentistry treatments under one roof, so you spend less time coordinating care and more time enjoying your results.
Dental Cleanings and Preventive Care
Routine cleanings are the cornerstone of a healthy smile. Our hygiene team removes plaque and tartar buildup, checks for early signs of decay, and gives your teeth a thorough polish. We also provide fluoride treatments and dental sealants to strengthen enamel and protect against cavities, especially for younger patients and adults at higher risk.
Crowns, Bridges, and CEREC Same-Day Crowns
When a tooth is damaged, decayed, or missing, crowns and bridges restore both function and appearance. What sets our Phoenix office apart is our CEREC same-day crown technology. Rather than waiting weeks for a lab to fabricate your crown, we design, mill, and place it in a single appointment. No temporary crown, no second visit, no hassle.
Mercury-Safe and Mercury-Free Fillings
We offer tooth-colored composite fillings that blend naturally with your smile. For patients concerned about older silver amalgam restorations, we also provide mercury-safe removal, following careful protocols to minimize exposure during the process. It is one more way we put your overall health first.
Occlusal Night Guards
If you wake up with jaw pain, headaches, or worn-down teeth, you may be grinding or clenching in your sleep. Custom-fitted occlusal night guards protect your teeth from the damage that bruxism causes over time, and they are far more effective and comfortable than anything you will find at a pharmacy.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Oral cancer is highly treatable when caught early. As part of your routine exam, our team performs a thorough oral cancer screening to check for any unusual tissue changes in your mouth, throat, and jaw. Early detection saves lives, and it takes just a few minutes.
Emergency and After-Hours Dentistry
Dental emergencies do not wait for business hours. Whether you are dealing with a knocked-out tooth, a severe toothache, or a broken restoration, our team offers emergency and after-hours dentistry to get you seen quickly and out of pain fast.
Sedation Dentistry
Dental anxiety is real, and it should never stand between you and the care you need. We offer comfort medications, including Halcion, to help anxious patients relax during treatment. If nervousness has kept you from the dentist, let us know. We will work with you to make your appointment as stress-free as possible.
