About The Pogue Center

Based on East Hartford Drive in the North Scottsdale area of Scottsdale, Arizona, The Pogue Center is a dental practice serving the area. Wisdom teeth are removed when they are impacted, repeatedly infected, decayed, or damaging the tooth in front, since they arrive last and often into a jaw with no room left. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out — one that erupts cleanly and can be kept clean is often left alone.

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. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list. Get in touch through it to ask questions or book a visit.

The Pogue Center is open Tuesday through Friday. Contact the practice through this page to confirm current appointment times before travelling.
What services does The Pogue Center offer?
Listed services at The Pogue Center include Wisdom Teeth Removal. The full list is shown on this page.
What age is best to have wisdom teeth taken out?
Late teens to early twenties is often easier, because the roots are less fully formed and bone is more forgiving, so healing tends to be quicker. Removal is still routinely done later when there is a reason for it.
Why do wisdom teeth cause problems?
They arrive last, often into a jaw with no room left, so they become impacted or come through at an angle. Partly erupted wisdom teeth are also very difficult to clean, which is why they are prone to repeated infection and decay.
Is it normal for teeth to be sensitive to cold?
Mild, brief sensitivity is common and often relates to exposed root surfaces or worn enamel. Sensitivity that lingers after the cold is removed is more significant and worth having examined, as it can indicate the nerve is involved.

If any one needs there wisdom teeth removed Dr Pogue’s office is the place to go. I have had both of my kids wisdom teeth out at this facility. My daughter a little more than two years ago, and my son just recently. The office which is also the waiting room is nice. The staff are all great and Dr. Pogue is awesome. He does a great job explaining everything at the pre surgery appointment as well as the day of the surgery. He does that while you are waiting for your teenager to be awake enough to walk out to your vehicle. Keep up the amazing work!

I was referred to Dr. Pogue to have my front tooth crown extracted and was a little apprehensive. At the consultation he was so professional and reassuring I felt confident going in for the procedure. That crown had been on there for 35 years! Well, I had it done yesterday and he was fantastic! I called this morning with a question and they immediately called me back, then Dr. Pogue called me a few hours later to see how I was feeling. Who does that anymore??? They truly cared for my well being and would HIGHLY recommend him (and his support staff!!) for anything dental!
