Read full description
Desert Dentistry Phoenix is located on East Chandler Boulevard in the southern reaches of Phoenix, offering a wide and varied menu that spans preventive, restorative, cosmetic, and surgical care. The breadth here makes it a strong fit for patients with extensive or long-deferred dental needs who would rather keep their treatment with a single, familiar team than be sent from office to office. General dentistry forms the everyday foundation, with dental cleanings, exams, and dental X-rays supporting diagnosis and prevention. From there the practice reaches deep into restorative work, with dental crowns, bridges, dental implants, and full-mouth rehabilitation for patients rebuilding damaged, worn, or missing teeth. Root canal treatment addresses infected or painful teeth, gum disease treatment and gum grafting tend to the health and structure of the gums, and extractions handle teeth beyond saving, giving the practice a comprehensive restorative and periodontal program. On the cosmetic and alignment side, Desert Dentistry offers teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, dental bonding, and complete smile makeovers, along with both Invisalign and traditional braces for patients pursuing a straighter, brighter smile. The combination means a single patient can address gum health, missing teeth, alignment, and aesthetics with the same team, and the practice keeps affordability in view so more of this work stays within reach. For patients who feel anxious in the chair, sedation dentistry is available to make longer or more involved appointments more comfortable, a meaningful option given the depth of treatment this office provides. Emergency dentistry rounds out the offering, so sudden pain, a broken tooth, or a needed extraction can be handled promptly. Taken together, the practice's reach across preventive, restorative, periodontal, surgical, cosmetic, orthodontic, and sedation care makes Desert Dentistry Phoenix a comprehensive destination for patients on East Chandler Boulevard facing complex needs. For Phoenix patients facing extensive or long-deferred needs, the chance to manage gum health, missing teeth, alignment, and aesthetics with one comfortable, affordable team on East Chandler Boulevard is exactly what makes this comprehensive breadth so practical and reassuring.

Open until 5 PM

Documented for dental implants in Phoenix, with periodontics on the service list and 3 procedures on file.

Read full description

Dr Jason Augustine DDS is a dental practice on West Bell Road in the Deer Valley area of Phoenix, Arizona. 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.

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.

Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.

Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment. Use this page to find contact information for Dr Jason Augustine DDS and to see its full range of services before getting in touch.

How to Choose a Dentist in Phoenix, Arizona

Use the ranking as a starting point, then narrow the shortlist based on the kind of care you actually need.

If you want routine or family care

Prioritize review consistency, insurance friendliness, practical hours, and a broad general-dentistry service mix over marketing language alone.

If urgency matters

Confirm same-day capacity, after-hours guidance, and whether the clinic handles urgent restorative work in-house or refers out.

If affordability matters most

Compare financing signals, insurance notes, and the local cost guide. A higher-ranked clinic is not automatically the best value for your specific treatment.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Do you accept my insurance or offer payment plans?
  • Are you taking new patients right now?
  • Do you handle my treatment in-house?
  • What is the total expected cost before treatment starts?
EditorialUpdated August 2, 2026Independently reviewed

Periodontics in Phoenix is served by a specialist market shaped by the city's large patient volume and the significant proportion of the adult population with established periodontitis from years of either deferred care or inadequate periodontal maintenance. Phoenix has multiple board-certified periodontists operating independent specialist practices across the major commercial corridors — Camelback, Biltmore, North Phoenix, and the Ahwatukee Foothills — as well as the periodontal departments at A.T. Still University and Midwestern University that serve as the specialist referral training environments for the Phoenix metro general dental network. The Phoenix periodontal specialist provides the surgical management range — osseous surgery, guided bone and tissue regeneration, soft tissue grafting, and implant placement — that the advanced-stage periodontitis case requires beyond what non-surgical therapy alone can achieve.

Smyleee evaluated Phoenix periodontic providers on DDS periodontist board certification or eligibility, surgical and non-surgical treatment outcome consistency, implant placement capability and CBCT imaging protocol, maintenance program depth, and AHCCCS and commercial insurance billing accessibility. These ten Phoenix practices are the periodontal specialists and advanced-capability general practices whose combined clinical and service quality the data confirmed as the most reliable in the Southwest's largest periodontal specialty market.
