About Dr. Blake Porter, DMD

Based on East Brown Road in Mesa, Arizona, Dr. Blake Porter, DMD is a dental practice serving the area. Periodontics is the specialty focused on the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, handling more advanced gum disease, related surgical treatment, and — in many practices — dental implant placement, which sits naturally alongside that training.

Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

A first appointment at a new practice typically covers a full examination, a review of your dental and medical history, and a professional cleaning, with X-rays if you do not have recent ones. It is also a reasonable time to raise any longer-term concerns, cosmetic or otherwise, so they can be factored into a plan going forward.

Day-to-day oral health still comes down to the basics between visits — brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between the teeth, and limiting how often sugary food and drink appear through the day matters more than the total amount eaten at once. Regular professional care is what catches whatever those habits do not.

Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.

When should I see a periodontist instead of a general dentist?
Usually on referral, when gum disease has advanced beyond what routine treatment is resolving — deep pockets, ongoing bone loss, or gum recession needing surgical management.
Why do dentists take X-rays?
Decay between teeth and problems below the gumline are invisible to the naked eye, so X-rays are what reveal them. Modern digital images use a low dose and are taken only when clinically justified.

I'm deeply grateful for Dr. Porter and his remarkable team at the office. From the outset, they extended a warm welcome and went to great lengths to treat me with respect, taking into consideration my Deafness. Their provision of convenient communication methods, such as writing and lip reading, made a significant difference. My initial encounter with Dr. Porter involved relieving the discomfort of an infected bone graft, which he skillfully removed, leading to a successful healing process. This experience solidified my trust in his expertise. Given my usual apprehension about relying on medical teams, my second interaction for a bone graft implant was truly exceptional, resulting in a smooth recovery. I am genuinely impressed by this office's dedication and Dr. Porter's thoughtful approach in ensuring my well-being. Lastly, I'm touched by the team's gesture of sending me lovely flowers (see attached picture), underscoring their care and reminding me to prioritize self-care. There's so much more I could share about the exceptional qualities of this office. Once again, my heartfelt thanks for everything!

Dr. Blake Porter was excellent. On our first consultation, he calmed my teenage boy's fears of the procedure. Dr. Porter explained what would happen and answered all our questions. On the day of the wisdom teeth extract, he was thorough and competent. He and his staff explained everything as it happened. My son's healing has gone smoothly with no incidents. I would totally recommend Dr Blake Porter to anyone looking for an oral surgeon.

Dr. Porter and his supporting staff were amazing with my daughter. She has severe anxiety and everyone involved was very patient and calming with her so her experience was the best it could be. They were very thorough with post op instructions and called to check on her after. I made several calls with questions during her recovery and every staff member was very knowledgeable and understanding. I highly recommend AZMax!!

I wasn’t prepared for the course of action that was needed, multiple teeth needed to be surgically removed along with a sinus lift and implants. I was quite anxious, however , Dr. Porter put me at ease. His professionalism was outstanding. He provided me with my options which in turn allowed me to make the right decision for my future. The customer service was five star for sure!! I would not hesitate to highly recommend Dr. Porter to any of my friends or family. Thank you !
