Most dental practices today are concerned with building only their numbers. They try to see as many patients as fast as possible, and as a result, patients feel rushed and stressed and end up with subpar dental work.
At Desert Vista Dental West, we do things differently than everyone else does, and thats exactly why our patients love us! Our main concern is building long and fulfilling relationships with our patients based on sincere compassion and well-earned trust. When people come to see us, we want them to know that theyll be treated like people, not a set of teeth with a wallet attached!
Our team will take the time to get to know you and your unique needs before we recommend any treatments so we can make sure your care is always perfectly tailored to your particular smile. This extra time is why were able to confidently stand behind our work, whether were providing a routine cleaning or replacing multiple missing teeth with dental implant restorations.
Our dentists and team at Desert Vista Dental West are united by an inner drive to provide dental care in Goodyear, Arizona, that puts compassion, relationships and truly stellar dentistry at the forefront of everything we do. Dr. Joy M. Collier and Dr. Matthew Smith are each accomplished dentists in their own right, but together, they make our dental office a truly special place. Thanks to them, you can trust that your dental care will always be first class at every visit. To start getting to know our wonderful dentists, click on the photos below.

Highly recommend Desert Vista Dental West. The admin staff have always been patient and understanding when I've had questions related to billing and insurance coverage, and the hygienists and Dr. Collier are fantastic.

The Staff at Desert Vista are like family. They treat you with care. Dr. Joy Collier, is very nice. We were patients for years. We moved but recently decided to travel so we could go back to them for our dental needs.

I love Desert Vista Dental! Not only is Dr. Collier an expert in her field BUT the office staff (shout out to Tiffany) is so accommodating, friendly, knowledgeable, and kind!!! I had a HORRIBLE experience with a previous "dentist " and was very apprehensive about getting more dental work done. Dr. Collier understood my needs, listen to me, and completely restored my faith in dentistry. If you're looking for quality dental work AND a team who addresses all your needs; definitely schedule an appointment. You will NOT be disappointed!

We have been clients with Desert Vista Dental for about 18 years! They are incredible. They truly care about who they serve. My husband had younger onset Alzheimer's and a few of their staff took education classes on how to communicate with Persons with Alzheimer's! They even played his favorite music when we came in.

From the minute I walked in until I left, I felt welcomed no pressure, able to relax and great conversations. Service was modern (X-rays don't cut up your mouth, no changing rooms) and professional. Thank you!!!
