The team at Apple Tree Dentistry, LLC believe in the importance of preventative care. We focus on keeping patients in good oral health so that they can live a full, healthy, and enjoyable life that is free from oral pain. This starts by educating our patients on what they can do to stay healthy at home. In our family dentist office we recommend that patients eat a healthy diet that consists of green leafy vegetables, lean protein, nuts, dairy products, and crunchy fruits and veggies. Eating these foods along with drinking water can help to keep teeth healthy and make them stronger. By simultaneously reducing sugar intake, patients can also reduce their risk of cavities.

It is also important to brush and floss throughout the day. Instead of waiting for bedtime to brush teeth, carry a small toothbrush and use it after meals and snacks. This makes it possible to remove sugar and bacteria from the teeth and gums before it has the opportunity to turn into acid that can attack the teeth. This preventative step can greatly reduce a persons' risk of getting a cavity or gum disease. We understand the importance of taking these steps at home and will spend the time necessary to educate and inform patients so that they can stay healthy overall. Education, after all, is essential for living a long and healthy life.

Understanding the importance of these regular dental exams, the staff at Apple Tree Dentistry, LLC work to make each patient extremely comfortable. This includes being welcoming and kind while performing dental treatments in a way that is painless and relaxing. Patients visit our dentist office because they trust us to do just that take care of their teeth and gums, gently. The majority of our patients are local and come from the greater Avondale area, we also see patients that are looking for gentle dental care.

Seniors, on the other hand, often struggle with gum disease and oral infections. As people age, their teeth can become weaker and infected more easily. Bone loss is incredibly common with seniors and by conducting regular dental exams, the team at Apple Tree Dentistry, LLC can help seniors to have strong teeth and reduce the risk of them falling out. Since over seventy percent of U.S. adults suffer from tooth loss, preventative care is important.

A. Primary, or 'baby,' teeth are important for many reasons. Not only do they help children speak clearly and chew naturally, they also aid in forming a path that permanent teeth can follow when they are ready to come in.

A. First, rinse the irritated area with warm salt water and place a cold compress on the face if it is swollen. Give the child acetaminophen for any pain, rather than placing aspirin on the teeth or gums. Finally, see a dentist as soon as possible.

A. Sealants work by filling in the crevasses on the chewing surfaces of the teeth. This shuts out food particles that could get caught in the teeth, causing cavities. The application is fast and comfortable and can effectively protect teeth for many years.

A. Have your family dentist evaluate the fluoride level of your child's primary source of drinking water. If your child is not getting enough fluoride internally through water (especially if the fluoride level is deficient or if your child drinks bottled water without fluoride), then we may prescribe fluoride supplements.

A. Soft plastic mouthguards can be used to protect teeth, lips, cheeks and gums from sport related injuries. A custom-fitted mouthguard will protect your teeth from injuries and even provide protection from severe injuries to the head.

A. There is very little risk in dental X-rays. Family dentists are especially careful to limit the amount of radiation to which you and your family are exposed. Lead aprons and high-speed film are used to ensure safety and minimize the amount of radiation. Digital x-rays provide an even greater level of protection by using up to 90 percent less radiation.

Family dentists are certified general dentists who specialize in treating patients of all ages, including children and adults. Because family dentists focus their efforts on general dentistry care, they are often tasked with diagnosing and treating cavities. Cavities are known to be infections in the teeth, which can result in long-term damage if the appropriate

General dentists and family dentists are quite similar and often get confused for each other. The main difference between the two practices is that in general, dentists specialize in specific areas, like orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry, which limits them to certain age groups. Family dentists specialize in broader areas, allowing them to treat more patients.If

There are certain things parents can do to help their child with cavity prevention. While visiting a Kid Friendly Dentist for checkups and routine cleanings certainly help, much of the care required for cavity prevention takes place at home. By helping your child practice good oral hygiene, you can avoid the need for dental fillings

My dentist, Dr. Duranni, was personable and was knowledgeable about my particular genetic disorder, which very dentists know anything about. The hygienist was very thorough and gentle and asked about my comfort often. I'll be going back every six months, even though it's a 25 minutes drive from my house and there are many dentists much closer.

I was told that Apple Tree Dentistry was sold to another company and it showed!! I would have like to have been advised that the dentist office was sold. I don't like my personal phone number and SSN passed on to another company without my notice. No mini bottled waters in the mini refrigerator and no coffee or tea pods for the Keurig machine and no snacks in the waiting area like the previous owners used to have. The Dentist came and examined my teeth before my cleaning which was different to me. The Dental Hygienist was very nice!!! Front desk was nice !!!!

The office seemed different and dirtier then i remembered. Visited for the first time in 6 months and is now under new ownership. Hygienist was not there for my appointment and when the team tried to reschedule with me they got snarky when I questioned their office only being open 3 days a week. I won't be back and will be very disappointed if I'm charged for sitting and waiting!

Wonderful one-on-one treatment from Dr Durrani and dental assistant Ezekiel. Ivy at the front desk was so sweet. Dr Durrani spent a lot of time sitting down with me discussing the different options for my dental work. I like that his primary focus is to save the good viable teeth you have. So far I've had two Dental visits with extractions, bone grafts and a crown. It was so great to receive one-on-one treatment where the dentist focused on me and getting the job done as efficiently and perfectly as possible. I am so extremely excited, that after seeing two other dentists in the past couple years, I finally have a plan to restore my smile and confidence. Ezekiel was also extremely helpful in offering Financial options since I'm self-pay. They have their own affordable in-house insurance option. If you're doing research and you're unsure I would highly recommend Apple Tree Dental Studio. Today was my third visit with Dr. Durrani and staff. Everyone is so awesome and my smile is coming together! Today they did some temp crowns on my uppers and I received my temporary partial on the bottom. Dr Durrani also took out my stitches. I met Carmen for the first time and she is really great! Carmen has wonderful expertise when it comes to cosmetic dentistry . Ezekiel is on top of things with the lab which I so appreciate. Dr Durrani has the best vision when it comes to restoring your smile. I am so happy and feel like today is the first day in so long that I can talk to people and not feel embarrassed about my teeth.

All the staff is very kind, welcoming, and patient. Dr. Durrani does a great job at explaining the procedure in a manner that puts you more at ease rather than scared/nervous. Love this place! Highly recommend!

I had these dental appointments set up for my daughter's for more than 6 months now. We go in this morning to have a routine visit done and was told that my new insurance wasn't verifiable since it's the weekend. That is understood. I, myself have since been to the dentist to have major work done with the new insurance and asked if they could look at my account and use the insurance on file. I was told the last insurance used was my old insurance which hasn't been active since February. Now, I'm worried I might be billed for a procedure that wasn't covered. I was told they could still see my kids and if my new insurance isn't covered it would be $99 out of pocket. I declined the visit. I also noticed the name of the company has a new name attached and I was told that it was a merge. Maybe that is the reason for all this . I'm not sure but it was such an inconvenience to me. Not happy at all.

Most expensive practice I've ever ever been to. They got me in for an emergency extraction which is why I used them. I paid cash that day for their "discount price" which was almost twice was othe places charge The procedure was done well BUT, the didn't have my name or number right in the system and when I pointed it out, it was like I was the crazy one. They kept trying to sell me on on their bridge for missing teeth "like buying yourself a new truck", I explained I was working with a Dental school, I was told that another dental school would do implants for free, which of course I knew was impossible. I asked for nitroce oxide, I was told headphones work better but they didn't have the gas anyway. And they used stitches which was just an excuse to get me back and charge me more to remove the stitches. I won't be back
