For “standout” smiles, dentist in Chandler, AZ blends personalized care with sophisticated technologies
No other city grew at the rate that Phoenix did between 2010 and 2019, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Signs of growth are all around us. As a transplant from Indiana (more than 25 years ago!), Dr. Richard Higgs appreciates all the recreational, cultural, and community amenities that Chandler, AZ and the surrounding area has to offer.
He also appreciates that you have many options when selecting a dentist to care for all of your family’s oral health needs. Aquila Dental is privileged to set itself apart from other practices in many ways, including:
- Advanced technology – We have invested in sophisticated technologies to enhance the dental experience. Laser dentistry, same-day crowns (made while you wait!), tailored sedative options, and digital (low-exposure) X-rays are just a few of the ways that we support comfort, convenience, safety, and exceptional outcomes at our office.
- Advanced artistry – Dr. Higgs has completed training at the renowned The Pacific Aesthetic Continuum in Alameda, CA. There is peace of mind, knowing that the appearance and health of your smile is in skilled hands. This notion applies whether you are in need of a “touch-up” with cosmetic dental bonding and in-office or home teeth whitening, or if you are undergoing a full “smile makeover.” We’re adept at everything from recontouring a “gummy” smile, to rebuilding teeth with porcelain veneers, crowns, bridges, and dentures that are in indistinguishable in form and function from natural and healthy teeth.
- Proactive, comprehensive services – Aquila Dental treats patients aged four and older. Our preventative, general, cosmetic, and restorative services are designed to resolve oral conditions or to maintain oral health at every life stage, and as needs for care evolve. Generally, conservative treatments are associated with little to no trauma, minimal time commitment chairside, and they are cost-effective. Professional cleanings and exams at least every six months are a cornerstone of excellent oral health. During these visits, we may also recommend additional preventive services, such as dental sealants and oral appliances (sports mouth guards or night guards for those patients who grind their teeth).
With ongoing visits to our office, you can avoid the need for emergency dental care. However, when accidents arise, our team makes every effort to see you same-day. We also offer many payment options, including our in-house membership plan, to ease fears about the dental bill. To benefit from high-value, quality dentistry, call Aquila Dental today. Schedule either an in-person or virtual consult. Send us a photo and our dentist will provide personalized video feedback. We look forward to “meeting” you!
