Dental Implants Periodontist
Near Santan Village, AZ
 Santan Village is the commercial and social heart of south Gilbert, and residents and families in this growing area now have easy access to a dental implant periodontist with over three decades of specialized experience. Scholes Periodontics & Implants provides advanced dental implant placement and periodontal treatment from our Chandler office at 595 N Dobson Rd B#34, Chandler, AZ 85224 — a convenient drive from the Santan Village area. Our periodontist has placed over 15,000 dental implants since 1992, bringing Santan Village patients a level of surgical expertise that translates into reliable, lasting outcomes.
The families and young professionals who make up the Santan Village community lead busy, active lives, and oral health problems like missing teeth or gum disease can quietly interfere with that pace. A tooth gap that makes you hesitate to smile, a denture that limits what you can eat at a restaurant, or gum inflammation that worsens each month — these are the kinds of concerns our practice resolves every day. We help Santan Village patients move past these limitations and get back to focusing on what matters most.
Our practice is exclusively periodontal, meaning we do not offer general dentistry. Every member of our team, every piece of equipment in our office, and every hour of our schedule is dedicated to implant surgery and periodontal care — and Santan Village patients benefit directly from that singular focus.

Comprehensive Implant and Gum Care for the Santan Village Area
Our practice handles the full scope of dental implant and periodontal procedures, ensuring Santan Village patients receive coordinated, start-to-finish care without the need for referrals to multiple offices.
 Single tooth replacement with a dental implant is the most effective and permanent solution for an individual missing tooth. The titanium post integrates with your jawbone to create a stable foundation, and the porcelain crown on top is custom-designed to blend with your surrounding teeth. Santan Village patients who choose a single implant gain a restoration that preserves jawbone, protects adjacent teeth from shifting, and functions identically to a natural tooth.
Full-arch solutions transform the experience of patients who have lost most or all of their teeth. Our Same-Day Smile procedure uses the All-on-4 treatment concept to support an entire arch of fixed, permanent teeth on just four implants — often completed in a single appointment. Our periodontist trained on this technique through a clinical residency in Lisbon, Portugal, and has performed it extensively at our Chandler office. For Santan Village patients currently wearing removable dentures, implant-supported dentures offer another compelling upgrade — a snap-in prosthesis that stays securely in place during meals and conversation while remaining removable for cleaning.
Periodontal treatment protects the foundation that supports every tooth in your mouth. We offer scaling and root planing for early and moderate gum disease, osseous surgery for advanced bone loss, and cosmetic periodontal surgery for patients who want to improve the appearance of their gumline after treatment. Our gum disease prevention programs and ongoing periodontal maintenance visits help Santan Village patients maintain healthy gums for the long term.
We also provide the procedures that make implant treatment possible for patients who have been told they lack sufficient bone. Bone grafting rebuilds jawbone volume. Ridge augmentation restores the natural contour of the jaw after tooth loss. And socket preservation protects bone at the time of extraction, ensuring the site is ready for a future implant.
Why Santan Village Patients Choose Our Specialist Team
When you choose a periodontist for dental implant placement, you are choosing a provider whose advanced residency training was entirely devoted to the gums, jawbone, and supporting structures that determine implant success. Our periodontist’s career-long dedication to these procedures — more than 15,000 implant placements — gives Santan Village patients a level of surgical refinement that general dental practices cannot match.
 Our CBCT scanner produces three-dimensional images of your jawbone anatomy, enabling our periodontist to plan each implant’s exact position, angle, and depth before making the first incision. This advanced imaging reduces surgical time, minimizes post-operative discomfort, and produces the kind of precise results that Santan Village patients expect from a specialist practice.
We take communication as seriously as we take clinical outcomes. Our team explains every diagnosis clearly, presents treatment options honestly, and ensures Santan Village patients feel fully informed and comfortable before any treatment begins. The feedback we receive through our patient testimonials consistently highlights the warmth and professionalism of every interaction.
A membership plan is available for Santan Village patients who do not carry dental insurance. We designed this plan to ensure that access to specialty periodontal and implant care is straightforward and affordable, regardless of your insurance situation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is your practice from Santan Village?
Our office at 595 N Dobson Rd B#34, Chandler, AZ 85224 is approximately fifteen minutes west of the Santan Village area in Gilbert. Williams Field Road and Queen Creek Road both provide direct westbound routes to our Dobson Road location.
What is cosmetic periodontal surgery?
Cosmetic periodontal surgery includes procedures that improve the appearance of your gumline, such as reducing a gummy smile by reshaping excess gum tissue or performing gum grafts to cover exposed roots from recession. These procedures enhance both the health and the aesthetics of your smile.
What is the All-on-4 treatment concept?
The All-on-4 concept uses four strategically angled dental implants to support a full arch of fixed, non-removable teeth. By tilting the rear implants, our periodontist can maximize contact with available bone, often eliminating the need for bone grafting. This approach is the foundation of our Same-Day Smile procedure.
Can gum disease lead to tooth loss?
Yes. Untreated periodontal disease progressively destroys the bone and tissue that hold your teeth in place, and it is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults. Early intervention with treatments like scaling and root planing can halt the disease before it reaches the point of tooth loss, which is why timely evaluation is so important.
Do you offer payment options for patients without insurance?
Yes. We offer a membership plan designed for patients without dental insurance, which provides an affordable pathway to specialty periodontal and implant care. Our team can discuss this plan and other payment arrangements with you when you call or during your first visit.
