The laboratory is equipped with the latest technology, including an in-house CAD/CAM and Zirconia/Ceramic milling facility, to specifically design and facilitate the fabrication of the highest quality dental restorations and provide unparalleled customer service. The lab technicians have received certifications from several prestigious dental organizations, including LVI Global and the Dawson Academy, by training alongside many world-class technicians to perfect the art and science of dental ceramics. They incorporate the latest technology and techniques into the laboratory, meeting or exceeding the expectations of clients.

August 19, 2020 - Code Red Water Drive

At the Phoenix Rescue Mission, the Veteran Family Riders and some of the Paradise Ridge Dentistry team presented a $400 cash donation and 65 cases of water. It is crucial that the homeless population has access to water during the blistering summer months, and the Phoenix Rescue Mission largely rely on the goodwill of the local community to donate water. With that in mind, we hope to make this an annual charity event. Maybe we can collect three times as much next year to truly make a difference.

July – August 2017 – Operation Smile Wide toothbrush donation for Operation Gratitude Ron Wolfley announces Operation Smile Wide on Arizona Sports.

We are asking our patients to book appointments and return their toothbrush kits during the months of July and August. The toothbrushes will be donated to Operation Gratitude and sent to our U.S. Military troops and first responders.

Our U.S. Military troops and first responders need many hygiene items, and we are asking patients to donate their toothbrushes so they can participate in the campaign. Along with the toothbrushes, we will take pictures of the patients holding their toothbrushes and ask them to write brief letters to the U.S. Military troops.

We have made giving back an easy experience for patients to touch the hearts of our U.S. Military by including a personal photo, handwritten letter, and a toothbrush kit. Handwritten letters are the most cherished items by our troops.

Book an appointment with us today to help put a smile on someone’s face.
