My name is terry Pearce; I have had teeth that were missing, teeth that needed a lot of work, and it’s something that I thought about a lot but never had the guts to do it until I found Dr. Wilcox. After my consultation with him that went really well, I had a complete mouth make-over.  The entire process was really great, I had a lot of anxiety beforehand. For a very long time, I wouldn’t go to the dentist because I hated going, but that’s all changed now. I came to Dr. Wilcox’s office and the whole procedure was unbelievable. I kick myself for not doing it a long time ago. It was painless for all the work that I had done, I came in one day and came out the next.

Since coming to Dr. Wilcox, every six months I’m here like clockwork, I don’t miss an appointment, I look forward to coming because obviously I have something to be proud of now and I want to take care of that. It gives you a whole new level of confidence especially when you are in the general public’s eye and talking to people a lot.  You can smile and know that they are looking at a smile that they probably wished that they had.

My name is LeAnn and I had a front tooth that died when I was about 17 years old that need to be replaced. When I had the tooth replaced; I told my dentist that it was too white and as I got older, my other teeth yellowed and my replacement tooth stood out like a neon sign.  With that one tooth the way that it was, I had to hide my smile, which was hard for me because I’m the kind of person that laughs all the time. That one tooth hindered my ability to enjoy myself,  so my husband offered to redo my teeth for me.

I went on the web looking for a dentist in my area and found a website that talked about all the different types of procedures that you could do and at the end of the website, the only recommended dentist listed was Dr. Wilcox. I called him and had veneers put on my teeth.  The procedure was wonderful, I didn’t have any problems, it was very comfortable, everyone was very nice and didn’t have any of the trauma of someone working on your teeth. It was wonderful. I have not had any problems with Desert Smiles Dentistry. After the procedure I have had comments all the time from people anywhere from the teenager behind the fast food counter to a couple that came to our garage sale and they would tell me “your teeth were beautiful, they’re beautiful.”

My name is Fran Schall and I live in Glindale, AZ.  I have had extensive orthodontic treatments and orthodontic surgeries that eventually led to needing cosmetic surgery. These treatments  included porcelain veneers and replacement of my silver fillings for composite fillings. Dr. Wilcox is one of the most gentle dentists that I have ever experienced. He is very thorough and has never recommended anything that I thought was unnecessary, giving me options and choices that I really liked.
