We’re glad you asked! Choosing a dentist is a really important decision!
Here are some reasons our patients give us 5-stars:
Bioclear is an innovative approach to cosmetic and restorative dentistry, offering a durable and natural-looking alternative to traditional fillings, bonding, or veneers. Developed by Dr. David Clark in 2007, this method outperforms conventional materials like composite, porcelain, and amalgam in both longevity and aesthetics.
Unlike traditional techniques, Bioclear is minimally invasive and preserves more of your natural tooth structure and enamel. Most treatments can be completed in a single visit, making it both efficient and convenient.
The process uses ultra-thin, clear anatomical tooth forms—known as matrices—that are placed around the tooth needing repair. A warmed composite resin is then injected into the matrix, allowing it to flow evenly around the tooth. Once set with a curing light, the matrix is removed and the restoration is polished, leaving you with a smooth, strong, and natural-looking result.

“My family and I moved back to AZ and were looking for a dentist. I received a flyer in the mail and decided to give them a try and I’m so happy I did. My husband and kids go to Affinity as well and they are great with the kids. The whole team is great. I’m truly blessed to have came across the flyer. We have been going for a little over a year and couldn’t be happier with the way they treat us.”
