How far is our office from Glendale?
Six miles, give or take, from downtown. Our office is at 10209 N 35th Ave Ste 129B, Phoenix, AZ 85051, on 35th Avenue between Dunlap and Peoria, in the North Mountain area of northwest Phoenix. From Murphy Park at 58th Avenue and Glendale Avenue, that works out to about 15 minutes in normal traffic. Sahuaro Ranch Park and Glendale Community College at 59th Avenue and Olive are a similar distance. The 85301, 85302, and 85304 zip codes all fall in that range.
Because the office sits east of central Glendale rather than up by the Bell Road corridor, the drive from downtown is a straight run on surface streets. No freeway required, though 43rd Avenue and Dunlap give you a second way in if Glendale Avenue is backed up.
Peoria borders Glendale and is about the same distance from us, roughly 15 minutes along Peoria Avenue. The Peoria page has that route, and the service area page lists every neighborhood we cover.
Same-day emergency dental care for Glendale patients
We keep emergency appointments open every day we're in, Monday through Saturday, and we don't ask you to wait for one to open up next week. Phones get answered 24/7 by a live person. During office hours that person gives you a time the same day; after 5pm, they book you for 7am the next morning, which for a Friday night call means Saturday morning, not Monday.
Walk-ins are welcome. Calling ahead from Glendale gives us the 15 minutes you're on the road to have a room ready, but if your phone is dead or you'd rather just get in the car, come anyway.
Our dentists do the work here. Exam, X-rays, diagnosis, and the treatment itself all happen in the same office on the same visit, including extractions and root canals. There's no second address you're sent to afterward.
Open Saturdays for Glendale
Our Saturday hours are 7am to 5pm, the same as Monday's. A Glendale patient with a cracked molar, or a child whose tooth was knocked out on a Saturday morning at Sahuaro Ranch Park, is seen the same day without waiting for the work week.
We're closed Sunday. The phone still gets picked up by a real person, and a Sunday caller gets the first Monday appointment at 7am. Our Saturday emergency dentist page goes deeper on weekends and evenings.
What an emergency dental visit costs for Glendale patients
You pay $45 for the emergency exam and diagnostic X-rays. That is the whole cost of finding out what's wrong. If treatment is needed, our dentists explain what it is and what it costs before any work begins; you choose whether to go ahead. Treatment costs are separate from the $45 and vary with what the X-rays show, so we don't publish a menu of prices. The written price is for your specific tooth and treatment.
Cash and most major PPO plans are accepted, including Cigna, Aetna, Delta Dental, Guardian, and Principal. Payment plans through CareCredit, Cherry, and HFD are on offer if you'd rather split the cost over time. The cost and insurance page lays out the full breakdown of how a visit is priced.
Getting here from Glendale
From downtown Glendale, take Glendale Avenue east to 35th Avenue and turn left to head north. Continue north to Dunlap Avenue; the office is on 35th Avenue between Dunlap and Peoria, and parking is on site.
Northern Avenue is the same idea: east to 35th Avenue, then north.
A third option is 43rd Avenue north to Dunlap Avenue, then east on Dunlap to 35th Avenue, then left to go north. Any of the three takes about 15 minutes in normal traffic.
Emergency dental services for Glendale patients
A same day tooth extraction in Glendale usually means a tooth that's cracked below the gumline, infected past saving, or so decayed that a filling won't hold; our dentists do both simple and surgical emergency tooth extractions in-house. Wisdom teeth are their own category, and emergency wisdom tooth extraction is available the same day when swelling or pain says it can't wait. Walk-ins are welcome for either, though a call ahead lets us have a room ready.
If a filling or crown came out over the weekend, bring the crown if you still have it. A chipped or broken tooth from a fall or a hard bite gets smoothed, bonded, or covered depending on how much is missing.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a Saturday dentist near downtown Glendale?
There is, about 15 minutes east of Murphy Park. We're open Saturdays from 7am to 5pm for emergency appointments and walk-ins. Take Glendale Avenue east to 35th Avenue and head north to Dunlap. Call (602) 737-2446 on the way and we'll have a room ready by the time you park.
Can I get a same day tooth extraction if I'm coming from Glendale?
You can. The exam and X-rays come first, since our dentists need to see the root and the bone around it before deciding whether the tooth can be saved. If extraction is the answer, it's usually done the same visit. Plan on the drive from 85301 taking about 15 minutes.
¿Atienden en español?
Sí. During office hours our staff speak Spanish, on the phone and in the office, so call us and explain what's wrong in whichever language is easier. A large part of Glendale speaks Spanish at home, and the visit, from the front desk to the written price, can run in Spanish.
