Meet Dr. Brown

A dentist who grew up watching medicine heal people.

Dr. Drew Brown is the founder and lead dentist. He grew up between Globe, Arizona and Fort Collins, Colorado — the son of a veterinarian — and spent his childhood watching his dad perform surgery. That early window into medicine became a lifelong calling.

“I simply enjoy working with people — creating a personal, close relationship with them every time I perform a treatment. That's what I find most fulfilling.”

Step 01

Paperwork sent ahead

We email a short medical-history and insurance form so you fill it in at home — not on a clipboard.

Step 02

Scan & exam

Low-radiation digital X-rays, an iTero® 3D scan, a comprehensive exam and an oral-cancer screening.

Step 03

Conversation

We sit down and walk through what we saw — on screen, in plain English. Questions encouraged.

Step 04

Plan & estimate

A written, prioritized plan with insurance estimates. You leave with a clear next step, no pressure.

Common questions

Asked & answered.

For most healthy adults, every six months is plenty. If you have a history of gum disease, recent restorations, or are mid-orthodontic treatment, we may suggest every three to four months for a season — and we'll always tell you why.
Most purely cosmetic work — whitening, veneers, smile bonding — is considered elective and isn't covered. Restorative work that's also cosmetic (a crown on a fractured molar, say) usually is covered. We itemize both on your estimate, so there are no surprises.
From placing the implant to biting into pizza on the final crown, expect roughly 3–6 months — most of that is healing time, not chair time. You'll have a temporary in place throughout, and a written timeline on day one.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by age one or within six months of the first tooth. We'll happily see your child that early — at that age it's more of a friendly meet-and-greet than a cleaning, and it gets kids comfortable with the chair.
Yes — we offer nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") for most procedures and oral sedation for longer appointments. Tell us at booking if you'd like to discuss options; you'll need a ride home after oral sedation.
Call the main line — (480) 474-4990 — and our after-hours message will route you. For a knocked-out adult tooth, time matters: rinse it gently (don't scrub), place it back in the socket if you can, and call us immediately.
