Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone. This treatment restores chewing function, prevents bone loss, and offers natural-looking results. Ideal candidates include patients missing one or multiple teeth seeking stable, long-lasting solutions that don't compromise adjacent teeth.
Periodontal Surgery
Advanced gum disease treatment through surgical procedures like pocket reduction and regeneration. These interventions remove bacteria, restore lost tissue, and prevent tooth loss. Patients benefit from improved oral health, reduced infection risk, and enhanced smile aesthetics through comprehensive periodontal reconstruction.
Soft Tissue Grafting
Gum recession treatment that covers exposed tooth roots using tissue grafts. This procedure reduces sensitivity, prevents further recession, and improves smile appearance. Patients experiencing root exposure from periodontal disease or aggressive brushing achieve both functional and cosmetic benefits.
Bone Regeneration
Jawbone restoration procedure that enables successful dental implant placement through guided tissue regeneration. This treatment rebuilds lost bone structure, enhances facial contours, and provides foundation for tooth replacement. Patients with bone loss from missing teeth or periodontal disease gain eligibility for implants.
Sedation Dentistry
Customized sedation options for anxious patients undergoing periodontal procedures. Oral and IV sedation ensure comfortable experiences while maintaining patient responsiveness. This service benefits individuals with dental phobias, complex treatment needs, or sensitivity to dental procedures.

The folks at East Valley Periodontics are really professional and friendly. The facility is super clean and well layed out. My dental hygienist Crystal is super nice, very knowledgeable and very friendly. Dr. Smith is straight forward and will tell you how things are: good, bad or in the middle!

When I called for an appointment the person I spoke to was friendly and very helpful. She was efficient and I received a confirmation email and the link to complete the new patient forms. When I checked in for my appointment, again I experienced a staff who were friendly and I feel they enjoyed their jobs and where they worked. The dental assistant was again amazing. Friendly and I felt valued as a patient.
Same goes for Dr. Nelson, very knowledgeable, explained things thoroughly, and listened to me when I explained the issues I had experienced. Now, we come to the treatment coordinator, another amazing experience. She was very efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. Again, as a patient and my husband, we felt valued. We loved how the entire staff we worked with had a sense of humor. Even though it can be a stressful situation with the actual surgery, some unknowns and the cost of the procedure we felt secure and well taken care of. Thank you! Dan and Lee Rachoy.

Great guest interaction-impressed with expertise and professionalism of staff. Dr Smith made a great first impression, he gave me a sense of confidence in his recommendations. Would be 5 star if they were better at time management-over an hour wait time seemed to be the norm based solely on experiences of patients in the waiting room.

They were running a little behind, but not bad, let's me know they take their time with patients. Met with Dr. Price and Allison and they couldn't have been more professional with me taking a full set of X-rays and the consultation. Dr. Price explained very clearly my options and his recommendations. At the end I met with April to schedule the appointment necessary to fix my issues and though Dr. Price was scheduled out 6 weeks, she found a cancellation for the very next Thursday, two days later. Couldn't have been more pleased with the care and service of the entire office.

EVP has made me feel very comfortable from start to finish of my implant procedure. I am one who has great dental anxiety and the staff has made me feel like I am not a burden and been very professional. Dr. Nelson is kind and very knowledgeable and takes time to explain what he is doing and why. Highly recommend
