About South Scottsdale Dental Care

South Scottsdale Dental Care operates on North Granite Reef Road in the South Scottsdale area of Scottsdale, Arizona. Dentures replace some or all of the natural teeth in a jaw with a removable appliance, custom-fitted to the mouth. A full denture replaces every tooth; a partial fills gaps where some natural teeth remain. Because the jaw bone reshapes over time, dentures typically need adjusting or remaking periodically.

Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is South Scottsdale Dental Care located in Scottsdale?
South Scottsdale Dental Care is on North Granite Reef Road in the South Scottsdale area of Scottsdale, Arizona (85257).
What days is South Scottsdale Dental Care open?
South Scottsdale Dental Care is open Monday through Friday. Contact the practice through this page to confirm current appointment times before travelling.
What services does South Scottsdale Dental Care offer?
Listed services at South Scottsdale Dental Care include Dentures. The full list is shown on this page.
Do dentures need to be replaced?
Yes, over time. The jaw bone gradually changes shape after teeth are lost, so a denture that fitted well originally becomes loose and needs relining or remaking to fit properly again.
What is the difference between full and partial dentures?
A full denture replaces all the teeth in a jaw, while a partial fills the gaps where some natural teeth remain and clips onto them for support. Which applies depends simply on how many teeth are left and their condition.
What happens during a routine dental examination?
The dentist checks the teeth for decay, examines the gums, looks at any existing fillings and crowns, and screens the soft tissues. X-rays are taken when there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth.

This place is a scam they took $89.00 from me for rescheduling an initial visit. Save your teeth for a real dentist that doesn't scam people to get them in the door. This place is a scammer business and not truthful about anything it offers !!

Dr Wade was understanding, compassionate and realistic. Very easy to communicate without feeling any guilt about my teeth. The denture specialists were outstanding! They absolutely knew where my discomfort was without me pointing it out. Very professional and knowledgeable! Highly recommend!

My hygienist Carrie is so caring and really informative I wish I could come to the dentist more than every 6 months. Dr Ward is also super friendly and always answers my questions. The staff is so kind and helpful with scheduling billing and everything in between sooo I definitely recommend coming here for your routine and orthodontic work!

Love this dentist office. I’ve been to both Tempe Dental Care and South Scottsdale Dental Care and both are phenomenal. Dr. Ward’s attention to detail is incredible, probably my favorite part of every visit. Each dental assistant I’ve had have also been great, gentle, they talk you through everything, and offer great advice. I’ve been seeing them for the last 5 years!

I'm fairly new to the Valley and have been to S. Scottsdale Dental Center a few times now, and wow, what a great experience! The entire staff was welcoming and friendly, and made my experience seamless and, most importantly, painless. The office is clean and contemporary, and one of the best things is that they’ve got TVs hanging from the ceiling as well as in front of you, so you are easily entertained as you’re having a procedure. I really like that. I’ll be back for a series of treatments, which I’m sure we’ll go fine as I have full confidence in my doctor/dentist
