Tucson General Dentistry

As a family dental practice, we offer comprehensive oral health services for every stage of life. Our general treatments span from preventative care to complex smile reconstruction.

Together with our Tucson dentist, you can discuss and choose the best types of treatment for your smile’s needs.

Some general dental services we offer include:

  • Our high-quality ceramic veneers, crowns and bridges are handcrafted in a local lab. Veneers and crowns provide the added coverage and protection you need for teeth with decay, wear, or fractures. Not only are they designed to function for the long haul, but each ceramic veneer/crown (aka “restoration) features maximum aesthetic detail to compliment the overall look of your smile.

    Our smile design process allows you to preview your prospective restoration before it’s permanently installed. Seeing a mock-up of your custom restoration helps you feel more confident about the overall look of your teeth and what you’re hoping to achieve.

  • Invisible/clear aligners are a comfortable, discreet orthodontic system that straightens your teeth without metal braces. There are no brackets or wires to clean around. And when you smile, no one should ever realize they’re there. Click here to learn more.

  • When you need more than a filling but not necessarily a crown, our Tucson inlays and onlays are the perfect compromise. Sometimes called “three-quarter crowns,” inlays and onlays are made to preserve healthy tooth structure and prevent additional fractures.

  • Dental Fillings in Tucson, AZ

    Ventana Dental in Tucson offers minimally-invasive, white (composite) dental fillings for our patients. These healthier and biocompatible restorations are better for your smile and blend right in with the color of your surrounding teeth.

    Advantages of White Fillings

    Compared to traditional amalgam (silver) restorations, white fillings bond much closer to your porous tooth structure, creating a tight seal between the filling and your tooth. This characteristic means our Tucson dentist can place smaller fillings and remove a smaller amount of healthy tooth structure, making the restoration less invasive than a conventional filling.

    The molecular makeup of the material also expands and contracts similar to enamel, meaning there are less microscopic cracks when exposed to cold or hot foods.

    Since white fillings can be customized to match the natural color of your smile, we can place them anywhere in your mouth. No one will have to know you’ve had dental work done! You can smile with confidence, knowing your mouth is as healthy and beautiful as possible.

  • Maybe you’re looking to jump-start your smile makeover. Or, you’re happy with the way your teeth look aside from their natural color. Our in-house teeth whitening is a quick and efficient way to get brighter teeth in just one appointment.

    When you arrive at our Tucson cosmetic dental practice, we’ll polish away surface stains and then apply a special whitening agent to your teeth. Within an hour you’ll leave the office with beautiful teeth 1-2 shades whiter than when you arrived.

    We also offer take-home whitening tray systems that you can use to whiten on your own or maintain the results of your procedure.

    If you’re planning on getting bonding, veneers, or ceramic crowns, you may want to whiten your teeth first. That way, we can match the new restorations to your brighter smile!

  • Unsightly white spots can detract from even the most attractive smile. White spots are typically due to past orthodontic treatment, traumatic injuries, or a lapse in dental care at one point or another. They’re often found along the gumlines or where orthodontic brackets used to set.

    ICON is a non-invasive white spot removal procedure that is extremely effective. Even the most tedious white spots can be erased in just one appointment. No whitening, bonding, or injections are required. ICON is completely painless. It is safe and effective for patients of all ages, eliminating the need for drilling or reshaping your natural smile.

  • Are you replacing your missing teeth with dental implants? We offer custom restorations including crowns, bridges, and dentures to fit your aesthetic preferences and facial anatomy.

  • Our Tucson practice is equipped with state-of-the-art digital scanning technology. Advanced TRIOS 3 systems provides numerous advantages for our patients, allowing us to improve the quality of your care experience. Click here to learn more.

  • We use state-of-the-art laser technology to perform gentle, efficient treatments right here in our Tucson practice. Some of the laser procedures we offer include gum contouring and cold sore treatments.

  • Safe soft-tissue laser technology allows us to boost your oral health during your checkup or deep cleaning appointment. Our laser uses state-of-the-art laser energy to destroy infectious bacteria and reduce gum swelling while protecting your healthy tissues.

    We recommend laser bacterial reduction when there are symptoms of aggressive gingivitis or periodontal disease. Such as swollen gums, bleeding when you brush and floss, or gum pocketing. The comfortable treatment is typically performed during your periodontal treatments, alongside traditional scaling and root planing. This twofold approach ensures a healthier, cleaner environment around teeth, making them easier to maintain at home and statistically improving your recovery rate.

  • Your preventative care appointment will help you intercept tooth and gum problems early, while they’re still reversible. Plus, we’ll clean and polish your teeth, giving you a fresh, blank slate to maintain until your next checkup. Click here to learn more.

  • Scheduling a regular cleaning with our Tucson dentist will help prevent gum disease from developing. But if it’s been a while since you saw a dentist last, we’ll want to screen for gum and bone deterioration during your next checkup.

    Treating gum disease usually involves a series of deep cleanings in our Tucson practice. Sometimes grafting or locally-placed antibiotics are needed.

  • VELScope technology allows our Tucson dentist to detect earlier signs of precancerous and abnormal oral tissues. Since oral cancer is so difficult to detect at early stages, advanced diagnosis has the potential to save our patients’ lives. VELScope helps identify irregular cells in your oral mucosa before they’re visible to the naked eye, significantly improving the prognosis for you and your family.

    A VELScope oral cancer screening takes just a few minutes to complete. It’s an essential part of our preventative care services, as oral cancer can be linked back to numerous factors (including certain viruses and sun exposure).

  • We understand the impact that missing teeth can have on a person's confidence and overall well-being. That's why we offer a range of denture and partial solutions to help our patients restore their smiles and improve their quality of life. Our experienced dental team works closely with each patient to create personalized treatment plans that address their specific needs and preferences. Whether you need a full set of dentures or a partial to fill in gaps, we use advanced materials and techniques to create natural-looking and comfortable prosthetics. With Ventana Dental, you can trust that your dentures or partials will fit securely, function properly, and give you the confidence to enjoy life to the fullest.

  • Grinding and clenching of teeth can cause significant discomfort and damage to your oral health. That's why we offer custom-fitted night guards to protect your teeth and jaw while you sleep. Our experienced dental team works closely with each patient to create personalized treatment plans that address their specific needs and preferences. Our night guards are made of high-quality materials that are durable and comfortable, allowing you to get a good night's sleep while protecting your teeth from damage. With Ventana Dental, you can trust that your night guard will be customized to fit your unique mouth shape, providing optimal protection and comfort. Protect your oral health and get a good night's sleep with our custom-fitted night guards.

    Your Tucson dentist also offer custom-fitted sports mouth guards. Lower your risk of dental emergencies with a custom-fitted mouthguard. Protect yourself from chipped teeth and concussions during athletic activities. All you need to get started is an impression of your teeth!

  • Sometimes teeth are so badly deteriorated or painful that the best thing to do is have them removed. If you need a therapeutic or emergency extraction, our Tucson dentist will help you create a tooth replacement plan at the time of your scheduled procedure.
