About Shalimar Family Dentistry

Shalimar Family Dentistry is a dental practice on East Southern Avenue in the Shalimar area of Tempe, Arizona. A dental implant replaces a missing tooth at the root, not just the crown — a small titanium post is placed in the jaw bone and, once it has integrated over a period of months, a replacement tooth is attached to it. It is generally the most durable option for a single missing tooth or several.

Clear aligners straighten teeth through a series of custom, removable trays, each worn for one to two weeks before moving to the next in the sequence. They suit mild to moderate crowding and spacing well, and are worn roughly twenty to twenty-two hours a day for treatment to stay on schedule.

Cosmetic dentistry covers treatment aimed primarily at appearance — whitening, veneers, bonding, and reshaping among the more common options — for patients who are less concerned with a problem that hurts than with how their smile looks day to day. The right combination depends on what specifically you would like to change.

Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and seals the space, and allows the natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Emergency dental care covers sudden problems that will not wait for a routine appointment — severe pain, a knocked-out or fractured tooth, swelling, or a lost filling that leaves a tooth exposed. Same-day or urgent appointments are the point of an emergency service, rather than the standard multi-week booking window.

Gum disease treatment ranges from a deeper professional cleaning for early inflammation through to more involved periodontal care once bone around the teeth has started to be affected. Bleeding gums are usually the earliest sign, and the early stage is reversible with proper cleaning and better daily plaque control.

I highly recommend this dental office! The clinic is always clean, welcoming, and professional. Everyone is friendly and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. Sky at the front desk is incredibly kind and helpful, and both Nicole and Dr. Hicks are attentive, caring, and take the time to answer your questions. I also really appreciate that they never try to sell you treatments you don’t need. They are honest, straightforward, and focus on what’s best for their patients. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and outstanding dental team!

Love this dentist. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. They explain everything they’re doing thoroughly. Answer Andy questions you have and genuinely care about you as a patient. I went here because they were close but I’m more than willing to drive distances to continue coming here

Honestly this place was awesome. I had an infected wisdom tooth and had to get it removed ASAP and the dentist, dental hygienist/assistant, AND the front desk lady were SO sweet. They explained everything to me, gave me the pricing before I went through with the procedure, and most importantly didn’t judge me in the slightest. I had the biggest fear of dentists before coming here and let’s just say, that has changed since coming to shalimar. They really give a damn about the patients and plus my appointment took an hour tops. I will be coming back here for more work done on my teeth 100%
