How far is our office from North Phoenix?
We're in it. The address is 10209 N 35th Ave Ste 129B, Phoenix, AZ 85051, in the North Mountain area of northwest Phoenix. If your zip code is 85051, 85021, 85029, or 85053, you're under two miles from us, and the drive takes under five minutes in normal traffic.
Some reference points. Cortez Park is at 35th Avenue and Dunlap, near the office. The old Metrocenter Mall site at I-17 and Dunlap, now being redeveloped, is about a mile east. Castles N' Coasters on Metro Parkway and the Rose Mofford Sports Complex at 25th Avenue and Peoria are each a short drive. The Metro Parkway light rail station, which opened in 2024 as part of the Valley Metro Northwest Extension, and the Thelda Williams Transit Center are both about a mile east of us. Bus Route 35 runs on 35th Avenue.
The office is about a mile from both I-17 at Dunlap and Metrocenter. Parking is on site.
Same-day emergency dental care for North Phoenix patients
A tooth that kept you up all night shouldn't have to wait until next week. We keep same-day emergency appointments open Monday through Saturday, and walk-ins are welcome. Call ahead if you can, because it lets us set up a room before you arrive. If you can't, come in anyway.
When you call, someone real picks up, day or night, and gives you a time that same day if we're open. After 5pm, they hold you a slot for 7am the next morning. Our phones are answered 24/7; the office itself keeps the hours above.
Our dentists handle the whole visit in our own office: the exam and X-rays first, then the treatment itself, from a filling that fell out to a surgical extraction. Nothing is referred out. If you're not sure your problem counts as an emergency, call anyway. Pain that's getting worse, swelling, bleeding that won't stop, or a tooth that's loose after a hit are all reasons to be seen today rather than Thursday.
Open Saturdays for North Phoenix
Saturday runs 7am to 5pm, exactly like a weekday. That matters when a crown pops off on Friday night or a molar cracks during a Saturday morning practice at Rose Mofford. You don't have to ride it out on painkillers until Monday.
We're closed Sunday. The phone line stays open, with a live person answering, and a Sunday call gets you the first Monday slot at 7am. The Saturday emergency dentist page covers weekend and after-hours details.
What an emergency dental visit costs for North Phoenix patients
The visit starts with the $45 emergency exam and diagnostic X-rays. Once our dentists can see what's going on, they explain what the tooth needs and put the price in front of you before any work begins. The decision is yours. Treatment costs are separate from the $45 and depend on what the X-rays show.
We take cash and most major PPO plans, including Cigna, Aetna, Delta Dental, Guardian, and Principal. If you'd rather spread payments out, CareCredit, Cherry, and HFD are available. The cost and insurance page walks through the whole process, from exam to written price.
Getting here from North Phoenix
From I-17, take exit 207 for Dunlap Avenue and head west. After about a mile you'll reach 35th Avenue; turn north. The office is on 35th Avenue before Peoria Avenue, and parking is on site.
If exit 208 for Peoria Avenue is closer, go west on Peoria to 35th Avenue and turn south. We're on the stretch between Peoria and Dunlap.
Coming from the Metrocenter redevelopment or the Metro Parkway station, head west on Dunlap; we're about a mile away. Without a car, bus Route 35 runs on 35th Avenue.
Emergency dental services for North Phoenix patients
For a toothache, toothache relief starts with finding the cause on the X-ray rather than covering it up with medication. A cracked or chipped tooth, from a fall at Cortez Park or a stray popcorn kernel, gets broken tooth repair the same day. When a tooth can't be saved, our dentists perform emergency tooth extractions, simple and surgical, right here. Swelling in the jaw or a bump on the gum usually means infection, and dental abscess treatment shouldn't wait.
Wisdom tooth pain, root canals and lost crowns are handled here too, Monday through Saturday.
Frequently asked questions
Is there an emergency dentist near Metrocenter that takes walk-ins?
Yes. We're about a mile west of the Metrocenter redevelopment at I-17 and Dunlap, and walk-ins are welcome Monday through Saturday, 7am to 5pm. Call (602) 737-2446 on the way if you can, so a room is ready when you pull in. If you can't call, come in and we'll see you that day.
Can I get to your office by light rail or bus from 85051?
The Metro Parkway station on the Valley Metro Northwest Extension is about a mile east of us, as is the Thelda Williams Transit Center. Bus Route 35 runs along 35th Avenue, our street. If you drive instead, there's parking on site, and I-17 exits 207 and 208 both put you within about a mile of the office.

We do. Those North Phoenix zip codes are all under two miles from the office, so you're under five minutes away in normal traffic. Our service area also reaches Sunnyslope, Glendale, Peoria, and other parts of the West Valley. Sunnyslope patients, for instance, come west on Dunlap in 10 to 15 minutes; the Sunnyslope page has directions.
