Our Chandler dentist office offers general dentistry as well as cosmetic and restorative dental work.
If you want to have teeth that are as natural as possible, then implants are an option compared to dentures. They look and feel like natural teeth, allowing you to brush them like normal and eat many of the foods that you enjoy. They are also often used instead of bridges since they can replace missing teeth without affecting neighboring natural teeth. With proper care, implants can last 10 years or more.
Lumineers may be your answer. They are ultra-thin veneers placed directly over your teeth and they are proven to last for at least 20 years. No shots, no grinding – pain free! While traditional veneers are much thicker, requiring the grinding down of your original tooth structure, Lumineers are so thin that little to no tooth reduction is necessary. The process involves just two painless dental appointments.

Invisalign creates little impact on your daily life. In fact, you can wear them up to 22 hours a day. Our dentists are accredited – equipped and trained to evaluate what needs to be done to bring out the best of your smile using this dental product.

Oral appliance therapy is an alternative to the CPAP to get a good night’s rest with no snoring, interrupted breathing, or airway blockage. Because this disorder can decrease the blood oxygen levels, sleep apnea is a potentially fatal and life-threatening condition. Dr. Andy and Dr. Joel have received specialized training in oral appliance therapy, and can custom fit an appliance for you.

What our clients say!
The Dentist, usually said with a cringe when you see that appointment on your calendar every six months, but Dr. Joel and the Shumway team make it easy and I noticed the last few times with my calendar telling me it’s time for a visit, I didn’t find myself cringing. Thanks for taking care of my teeth Shumway team.

People who stop breathing during the night experience excessive daytime fatigue that puts them at risk for accidents and low productivity. The symptoms of depression and other mental health conditions often worsen…
