Dental Implants Periodontist
Near Ahwatukee, AZ
 Ahwatukee residents who need a periodontist with genuine expertise in dental implants no longer have to search far from home. Scholes Periodontics & Implants in Chandler, AZ has been a trusted name in implant dentistry and periodontal care since 1992, and our office at 595 N Dobson Rd B#34, Chandler, AZ 85224 is an easy drive east from the Ahwatukee community. Our periodontist has placed over 15,000 dental implants over the course of a career spanning more than three decades — experience that Ahwatukee families can rely on when it matters most.
Ahwatukee is a community that values quality of life, and your oral health plays a bigger role in that than many people realize. Missing teeth affect more than just your smile — they can change the way you eat, speak, and feel about yourself in social situations. As a dedicated periodontal practice, we help Ahwatukee patients regain function and confidence through implant solutions tailored to their individual needs.
Our practice is built around two core specialties: the treatment of periodontal disease and the surgical placement of dental implants. That focused scope means every member of our team — from the front desk to the treatment room — is trained specifically for these procedures, creating an experience that Ahwatukee patients consistently describe as thorough, professional, and comfortable.
Dental Implant Options Designed for Ahwatukee Patients
Every patient who walks through our doors has a unique situation, and our practice offers a complete menu of implant solutions to match. Ahwatukee residents can access everything from a single-tooth restoration to a complete smile transformation, all under the care of a board-qualified periodontal specialist.
 If you are missing a single tooth, a single dental implant offers the most natural and durable replacement available. The titanium implant post is placed directly into the jawbone, where it bonds with the bone through a process called osseointegration. Once fully integrated, a custom porcelain crown is attached, giving you a tooth that blends perfectly with the rest of your smile and can withstand the full force of everyday chewing.
For patients facing more extensive tooth loss, we offer the Same-Day Smile procedure based on the All-on-4 treatment concept. This approach is particularly popular among Ahwatukee patients who have been wearing traditional dentures and are ready for a permanent upgrade. Using four strategically positioned implants per arch, we can secure a full set of fixed, non-removable teeth — and in many cases, you leave our office with your new smile the same day. Our periodontist completed advanced clinical residency training on this specific technique in Portugal, adding an international dimension to the expertise available to our Ahwatukee patients.
Seniors considering implants will find our practice especially accommodating. Age alone is rarely a barrier to successful implant treatment, and our team has extensive experience working with older adults who want to improve their quality of life. Our dental implants for seniors page outlines common questions and considerations for mature patients exploring their options.
We also address the conditions that often accompany tooth loss. Bone grafting procedures rebuild deteriorated jawbone, making implant placement possible for Ahwatukee patients who may have been told they lack sufficient bone. Our gum grafting services restore receding gum tissue, and our full suite of dental services covers everything from scaling and root planing to advanced periodontal surgery.
What Makes Our Practice the Right Choice for Ahwatukee Families
When your periodontist has placed over 15,000 dental implants, every case benefits from that accumulated knowledge. Complex anatomy, thin bone, challenging sinus proximity — our team has encountered and successfully navigated virtually every scenario that Ahwatukee patients might present. That experience is irreplaceable and directly contributes to the quality and longevity of your results.
Our dental technology reflects our commitment to precision. The CBCT scanner in our office captures detailed three-dimensional images of your entire jaw structure, enabling us to plan implant procedures with millimeter-level accuracy. For Ahwatukee patients, this translates into less guesswork, shorter surgical time, and more comfortable recovery.
The atmosphere in our office is something that consistently surprises new patients. Many Ahwatukee residents arrive expecting a clinical, impersonal environment and instead find a team that genuinely listens, takes time to explain every detail, and treats each person as an individual rather than a chart number. Our patient testimonials reflect this culture, and we encourage you to read them before your visit.
We also understand that financial considerations matter. Our membership plan for uninsured patients makes specialty periodontal care attainable, and our team is always willing to discuss options that work within your budget. Ahwatukee families should never feel that cost is an insurmountable obstacle to the care they deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is your office from Ahwatukee?
Our office at 595 N Dobson Rd B#34, Chandler, AZ 85224 is approximately fifteen to twenty minutes from most areas of Ahwatukee. Chandler Boulevard, Ray Road, and the I-10/Loop 202 interchange all provide convenient access to our location.
Are dental implants a good option for older adults?
In most cases, yes. Age alone does not disqualify someone from dental implant treatment. Our periodontist has extensive experience placing implants for patients of all ages, including seniors. Visit our dental implants for seniors page to learn more about what to expect as a mature patient.
What is the difference between implant-supported dentures and traditional dentures?
Implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implant posts surgically placed in the jawbone, providing far greater stability than traditional dentures. They eliminate slipping and clicking, restore stronger chewing ability, and help preserve the jawbone from the deterioration that often accompanies conventional dentures.
Can I get a dental implant the same day a tooth is extracted?
In some cases, immediate implant placement is possible following a tooth extraction. However, this depends on the condition of the extraction site and the surrounding bone. Our periodontist will evaluate your situation and recommend the approach that gives you the best long-term outcome.
What should I do if my gums bleed when I brush?
Bleeding gums are often an early sign of periodontal disease and should not be ignored. We recommend scheduling an evaluation so our periodontist can assess your gum health and determine if treatment is needed. Learn more about the connection between oral and overall health on our website.
