A Dentist Convenient to Valencia West

Valencia West is a large residential community southwest of Tucson, extending west from the older neighborhoods surrounding Tucson International Airport and the Mission Road corridor.

The community has grown substantially over the past several decades as new subdivisions have expanded westward into what was once largely undeveloped desert. Today, Valencia West is home to tens of thousands of residents and is predominantly Hispanic or Latino, reflecting the culture and character of Tucson's southwest side.

Unlike some parts of metropolitan Tucson where getting across town can mean navigating multiple major streets, Valencia West has a particularly straightforward connection to our office:

Take Valencia Road east toward Mission Road.

First Dental Center is located on Valencia Road just east of Mission and just west of Midvale Park in the same shopping center as Walmart, so patients coming from Valencia West can reach us without traveling into central Tucson.

Family Dental Care Near Valencia West

Valencia West is largely residential, and many households need a dental office that can care for different members of the family without sending everyone to separate practices across Tucson.

First Dental Center provides comprehensive general dentistry in one location.

Regular examinations and dental cleanings help us identify problems while they're still small. When treatment is necessary, we can provide fillings, crowns, bridges, periodontal treatment, root canals, extractions, and other restorative procedures.

Our goal is to help patients maintain their natural teeth whenever possible and provide appropriate replacement options when a tooth cannot be saved.

Dental Implants Near Valencia West

Missing a tooth can affect more than the appearance of your smile. It can make chewing more difficult, change how forces are distributed among your remaining teeth, and eventually contribute to bone loss where the tooth is missing.

Dental implants replace missing tooth roots with small titanium implants placed into the jawbone. Once healed, the implant can support a dental crown that looks and functions much like a natural tooth.

First Dental Center provides dental implant treatment for appropriate candidates. We evaluate your gums, available bone, remaining teeth, and bite to determine whether an implant is a good option.

Some patients need an extraction or bone graft as part of the process. We'll explain what your individual treatment requires before moving forward.

Root Canal Treatment Near Valencia West

A badly infected or damaged tooth doesn't always need to be extracted.

Root canal treatment can often save a tooth when decay or infection has reached the pulp inside it. During treatment, the infected tissue is removed, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed, and the tooth is restored to protect it from further damage.

Symptoms that may indicate a problem inside a tooth include persistent toothache, pain when biting, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling, or a pimple-like bump on the gums.

If you're experiencing significant tooth pain, don't wait for it to become unbearable. First Dental Center is only a few miles east of Valencia West and can evaluate the tooth to determine what's causing the problem.

Gum Disease Treatment

Bleeding gums aren't something you should simply learn to live with.

Gingivitis and periodontal disease are extremely common, and gum disease can progress without causing significant pain. As periodontal disease advances, it can damage the tissues and bone that hold your teeth in place.

First Dental Center provides periodontal evaluation and treatment based on the severity of the disease. Regular periodontal maintenance can also help patients who have previously been treated for gum disease keep the condition under control.

Dentures and Other Tooth Replacement Options

Dental implants aren't appropriate for everyone, and they're not the only way to replace missing teeth.

Depending on how many teeth are missing and the health of the remaining teeth, we may discuss traditional bridges, partial dentures, complete dentures, or dental implants.

Rather than assuming one treatment is right for every patient, we'll explain the advantages and limitations of the available options and help you determine what makes sense for your oral health, needs, and budget.

Emergency Dentist Near Valencia West

A broken tooth, severe toothache, dental infection, or lost restoration can happen without much warning.

If you have an urgent dental problem, call First Dental Center and tell us what's happening. We'll determine how quickly you should be seen and make every effort to address urgent dental problems as soon as possible.

Facial swelling, fever associated with a dental infection, difficulty swallowing, difficulty breathing, or rapidly worsening symptoms may require immediate medical attention.
