Robert Baker Dentistry is a Mesa based family dentist practice that treats patients of all ages. We are committed to delivering the highest quality dental care and do so using advanced dental equipment. We are a cosmetic dentist that offers services like checkups, teeth cleaning, crowns, veneers and more.
The team at Robert Baker Dentistry 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 team at Robert Baker Dentistry 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 Mesa 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 Robert Baker Dentistry 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.
Wondering whether a family dentist can see adults? Some dentists only treat certain ages, which means they only treat children or they only treat adults. Family dentists are dental professionals who can treat patients of a wide range of ages.Looking for a new family dentist in Mesa? When someone is in need of a new

A smile makeover can significantly improve the way that the teeth look and function.

Although many individuals are aware that general dentists recommend professional teeth cleaning on a regular basis, not everyone follows suit. Most people operate under the mindset that at-home oral hygiene is enough to do the job, but that is far from true. Professional teeth cleanings are just as essential as visiting a doctor on an

Dr. Baker is the best dentist I have ever gone to. He is always there for his patients when they need him. I have had the worst experience with other dentist. Dr. Baker and his team really are great people. My boyfriend sent me to him now my sister goes and my kids go to him along with several friends of ours. We all would never change now. I recommend him with 10 stars not just 5.

Dr. Baker and his staff are the best. This is a small dental office that takes great care with their clients. I've been to many dentists and Dr Baker is by far the best. He is very good and conscientious. He suggests only the work that is needed and handles it with care.

Dr. Baker is an excellent dentist. I have been seeing him for a couple years now. Just recently he fitted and placed veneers for me. It was an emotional experience for me as I had one tooth that was discolored and misshaped. His suggestion was to replace both front teeth with porcelain veneers! They look so great no problems with sealing or pain! Thanks again Dr. Baker and Team! I am so in love with my new smile!!

I've been going to Dr. Baker for years and I cannot speak highly enough of him! He is professional, courteous, and most importantly makes you feel incredibly comfortable! I've had several dentists throughout my life but Dr. Baker is by far the best I've ever had. Once, I cracked a tooth so I called Dr. Baker and his staff got me in the same day. He put a crown on my tooth that day and stopped the pain! I would highly recommend him to anyone, in fact, I have recommended him to several people and they all love him!
