Meet Your Phoenix Dentist

We want to extend a warm welcome to our patients near Phoenix, Arizona. Whether you live in Scottsdale, North Phoenix, Paradise Valley, Desert Ridge or Kierland we welcome you to our growing dental family. Dr. Matthew J. Cavendish is highly skilled and trained in many dental procedures, including clear aligners, dental implants, sleep apnea, and cosmetic dentistry.

Dr. Cavendish focuses on gaining trust and respect from all his patients, especially his youngest patients. As a family dental practice, want to grow with our patients and be a part of their lives.

Advanced Training and Technology

Dr. Cavendish sets a high standard for himself and his dental team. He has spent countless hours completing continuing education classes that qualify him for many dental treatments. These classes also keep him up-to-date with new and improved dental techniques and equipment.

His staff often joins him at lectures to stay on top of new dental trends and research. His hard work and passion for learning mean that we can offer a variety of dental services beyond basic dental cleanings and exams.

We use dental equipment like DIAGNOdent, which spots cavities too small to see. Dental lasers can remove diseased gum tissue, reshape the gums, and even whiten teeth. Laser dentistry can also help gum grafts, and bone grafts work and heal faster. All of our x-rays are digital, and our intraoral cameras can give us a complete image of your teeth. For crown and bridge impressions, our practice uses the Cerec digital scanner to map the entire jaw quickly and precisely. Every type of dental equipment in our practice is geared to make your visit quick, efficient, and comfortable. We love educating our patients about what we use and why, so feel free to ask about our dental technology.

During your dental exam, we encourage communication with Dr. Cavendish about any issues you may have. Are you experiencing pain or sensitivity in your teeth or gums? Do you have anxiety about dentistry? Is there something about your smile that you wish you could improve? Maintaining an open and honest dialogue with Dr. Cavendish helps us understand what your smile goals are, and any concerns you may have.

Stress-Free Dentistry

We know that dental anxiety is a problem for many people. Some of our younger patients are hesitant about going to the dentist because they don’t know what to expect. On the other side, some of our older patients have anxiety about past dental experiences. That’s why we are dedicated to providing a safe, comfortable dental office.

We offer our patients soft pillows, headphones, and more to make your stay that much more relaxing. For our patients who need a little extra help feeling calm, we can even prescribe medication to help get rid of dental anxiety. We also go to great lengths to keep our dental office clean and safe. All instruments are sterilized entirely after each use. We also follow the standards recommended by the CDC, OSHA, and the American Dental Association to ensure your safety.
