Wonderful place! Excellent service. I had a crown implant that same day with Dr. B, without pain and it was a good price!! Iriana was the assistant and she was very helpful in answering all my questions. Definitely recommend.
Dr. B is one heck of a guy. My implants look great. We had trouble with one upper implant. I said I’d be fine with a false upper. He said no way. We got the upper fixed and I’m glad I listened to him. I would recommend Central Valley Dentistry to anyone considering dental implants or if you just need the best dentist in the valley. A great staff too by the way.

I love Central Valley Dentistry! The minute you walk in the door you feel welcome. I came to Dr. B a year and a half ago to have extensive work done. I have had bone Grafts, tissue grafts, root canals, bridges and implants. I have spent a lot of time here. Every member of the staff goes above and beyond every time. Dr. B genuinely cares about his patients and his work is amazing. Going to this dentist office feels like stopping by a friend's home instead of going to a business.
Great dental experience. Pain free tooth removal and bone graft in preparation for an implant. Would highly recommend this practice.

I have never had a bad experience at Central Valley Dentistry. Both Dr. B and Dr. C are wonderful, caring dentists. I have had a number of procedures; oral surgery, crowns, implants and cleanings, and I am never afraid to put myself in their capable hands.

Professional staff, really nice office (it’s important), and fantastic doctor (Dr. B). I had an old root canal that had to be pulled out and replaced with an implant. Doctor B and the assistants took really good care of me. They do really care about patient experience and made me comfortable during and after the procedures. I am forever grateful!

Best Dentist Ever! I'm usually scared to death of dentists, but this one is amazing. I had 2 implants done with a complex bone reconstruction that I had to do before those. None of the operations were painful. The doctor Babak performed in person and followed up very carefully in the next days and weeks to see how I was doing.
Unfortunately I had to move to NYC, but if I will have to do some other major works I'll for sure go there again.

Dr. B is the Best! Who would think getting an implant post placed would be a positive experience? His staff are professional, courteous, and very competent. The procedure was completed quickly and thanks to a great pain block, I never felt more than vibration. Highly recommended!

A simple procedure that can protect your smile & prevent bigger dental problems.

A tooth extraction in Phoenix removes a damaged or infected tooth that can’t be restored. Our team uses modern tools and gentle techniques to make the process smooth and comfortable.
Depending on your needs, we may use local anesthesia or sedation to help you stay relaxed during treatment.
Once your tooth is removed, your gums heal naturally and prepare for future restoration. It can be an implant, a bridge, or another solution. They help you maintain good oral health, prevent infection, and protect your remaining teeth.
With the right care, your recovery is quick and straightforward, which helps you feel better and smile confidently again.

Patients no longer need to struggle with constant pain or repeated dental issues caused by severely damaged teeth. In some cases, a gentle extraction is the best step toward restoring lasting comfort and oral health.
While fillings or root canals may work for minor problems, a damaged tooth that can’t be saved can lead to infection, bone loss, or crowding. Removing it at the right time prevents bigger complications and prepares your mouth for future restoration options like implants or bridges.
So stop Googling “tooth extraction near me” and contact Central Valley Dentistry in Phoenix to have a safe, professional extraction and get long-term relief.
Tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is too damaged, decayed, or infected to be repaired. Removing it helps protect surrounding teeth and gums from further problems. Extractions are also done to prepare the mouth for orthodontic treatment or replacement options like implants or bridges.
Two main kinds of extractions: simple and surgical. Simple extractions are for visible teeth that can be removed easily. Surgical extractions are for teeth that are broken, impacted, or haven’t fully emerged, like wisdom teeth. Both types are performed with local anesthesia and modern techniques.
Having a tooth removed by a skilled dentist helps prevent infection, overcrowding, and further dental complications. Professional extraction promotes proper healing and preserves the natural alignment of surrounding teeth. After removal, your dentist will guide you on how to care for the area.
During an emergency wisdom tooth extraction, the dentist examines your mouth, takes X-rays if needed, and numbs the area before gently removing the tooth. This helps relieve pain or swelling caused by an infection or impaction.
Most clinics can see patients for urgent extractions within 24 to 48 hours, depending on appointment availability. In more severe cases, same-day visits may be offered when possible.
Look for a dental clinic that provides same-day or after-hours appointments, experienced dentists, and clear after-care instructions. Make sure they explain the procedure and comfort options before treatment.
Most patients feel only slight pressure during the procedure because local anesthesia keeps the area numb. Some mild soreness or swelling can occur afterward, but it usually improves within 2 to 3 days.
Most people feel comfortable again within 3 to 5 days. Complete healing of the gums may take 1 to 2 weeks, while deeper bone healing can take up to 6 to 8 weeks.
Keep pressure on the gauze for a few hours, avoid rinsing or using straws for 24 hours, and stick to having soft foods for the first few days. Rest, stay hydrated, and follow your dentist’s care instructions closely for a smooth recovery.
