Arrowhead Dental Group and Orthodontics

Not the Best when it came to all the money they wanted for unnecessary services like a deep cleaning for my husband and a crown for me that they tried to talk me into the same day. All in all, we got great cleanings with little discomfort. However, I had to request a cleaning for my husband, which is the reason we came in, after insisting they finally cleaned his teeth. We spent $ 39 each but looking back I should have went to our regular dentist and paid full price. We came here bc we lost our insurance and it was close to our home but this experience caused me to get our insurance back and go back to our favorite guy– Dr Gonzalez in Avondale.

Most incredible dental office! Outstanding overall! I was in and out within 1 hour and I had 1 onlay and a filling done. I was back to work so quickly… I appreciate that so much! Dr. McIver is truly amazing! His delivery of anesthesia was so awesome. I never felt a thing! Love that! His staff is also super professional, timely, and friendly. I was like I was hanging out with friends. I enjoyed my experience so much that I had to write a review.
Oh yes. The PRICE! Almost too good to be true. The work feels and looks awesome. I didn’t pay very much for OUTSTANDING dental work and experience. I live in Scottsdale but will drive to Peoria to have Dr. McIver and staff take care of me and my family! LOVE THIS OFFICE!

I just had to review this place for it’s excellence. It’s long overdue. I was terrified to get the deep cleaning that had always been recommended by every dentist I’ve ever been to. They had always described it as cutting my gums apart and getting in there to the bone. Arrowhead Dental Group has innovative technologies and staff who can be thorough and efficient who are highly trained in specific areas. Not only was it faster than I had anticipated, she really got in there, gently and assured my comfort with local and topical medications. It was the most incredible feeling to have clean teeth and gums and my road to a completely healthy mouth is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The staff was wonderful! I was being treated by Sarah Bielawski, who specializes in gum disease and is laser certified. She was so gentle and made sure that I was comfortable the entire time. She truly cares about her patients.
My daughter needed a cleaning before her orthodontist would change her wire again and the place I had an appointment with cancelled on me when I showed up and she was due the next day to have her wire done. I panicked and went here to Arrowhead Dental Group, they were done for the day and had no available appointments. I got a little choked up and that is when Dr. McIver walked out to the front. He asked what the issue was and the staff sympathetically told him and he didn’t hesitate at all and stayed late and took her in and cleaned her teeth. He didn’t seem rushed, he made us feel right at home. He was my hero for the day! No matter what dental needs you may have, the staff here makes it worth going to this location. They know how to take care of their patients. I’m so grateful.

RUN FROM THIS PLACE!!! Don’t walk… RUN!!! AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!!
They lied to me about needing a «deep cleaning» and charged me $ 300.00. The reason I know they lied is because it took them NO LONGER to clean my teeth than any other teeth cleaning session I have ever had in my several decades of going to the dentist!
When I returned (like a fool), they asked me to PAY $ 300 UP FRONT for a deep cleaning??? Wait… don’t I SEE someone first to see if this expensive procedure is necessary, or do they think once a fool, always a fool??? They said, «Once you need a deep cleaning once, you always need a deep cleaning.» WTH???
I REFUSED! I went to another dentist for my cleaning and he told me my gums and teeth were in better shape than his! I got my teeth cleaned for $ 5.00!!! My insurance covers a standard teeth cleaning with a $ 5.00 copay, not that rip off $ 300 «deep cleaning» I was convinced I needed or my teeth would fall out!!!
Go ANYWHERE ELSE!!!

My visit at this office went well. I was having my wisdom teeth pulled and was really nervous. The staff was nice, and the procedure went smoothly. I gave them three stars because they were supposed to contact me before my appointment. I had some questions about the procedure. My appointment was originally just for the consultation but they said they might be able to fit the procedure in as well. When I didn’t hear from them I gave them a call. The man I talked to told me he was trying to figure out the dentist’s schedule, and he would call me back. He never did. Other than that, they’re not too bad.

I first came here 3 years ago because I had a groupon and have stayed ever since! The doctor is really nice and I love Amber the dental hygienist. They are very good about keeping up with appointment and also accept walk-​ins. For those without insurance they have a discount plan that you can sign up for. I think it’s called smile dental or something like that. I’ve been using the discount plan because the prices are cheaper than my company’s dental plan. I wouldn’t say this is the cheapest dentist I’ve been to but it’s definitely been the most painless. ^^ All in all I’ve been very pleased with the experience.

This was my third visit to this dentistry. They are wonderful, friendly and give you all the options and don’t force it down your throat. Each time I go, they recommend something or another and even if I turn it down, they understand. Their staff is well picked and they do a great job cleaning and letting you know what’s going on with your teeth.
I don’t know why this place only has one star, all of the good, useful reviews are being filtered so please read those before you take the 3, one-​starred reviews to heart. This really is a good place that deserves to be recognized.

Brought my two kids in for a check-​up and cleaning. They were nervous as it had been a while since their last visit with different dentist. The staff was very personable, warm, and friendly. We were taken care of right away and treated extremely well. I would definitely recommend this office.

DON’T DO IT! I was there over 2 hours. I waited, got xrays, the dentist poked at my teeth and then I was told I could come back for a cleaning and a new inlay. WHAT?

Instead of paying big bucks for the old style crown where they drill, put on a temporary crown, bring you back in a week for the final crown, they did it with a better porcelain crown in one hour. For a lot less than what my old dentist wanted for the old style. Staff is great, friendly, knowledgable, efficient. For those who don’t have insurance, go here. Better prices, better service, better product.

This place is a total joke. I would NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER go back here. I had recently changed my dental insurance so my previous dentist wasn’t covered by my dental insurance. Arrowhead Dental Group was, so I made an appointment with them. I went in for an exam and a cleaning. After being examined by the dentist, I was told that I needed a crown and that they could do it that day for me. Like I had all day to sit in the dentist’s chair and get a crown when all I came in for was a cleaning. Please! Next, I was examined by the dental hygenist, who went to get the dentist who came back in and informed me that they could not clean my teeth because I needed scaling and root plaining and that if they attempted to just clean my teeth, they could be liable or some stupid bullcrap like that. My son also had an appointment for a cleaning the next week. He went in and they told him the same exact thing about not being able to clean his teeth. I know that I have had gum issues in the past, but not to the point that someone couldn’t clean my teeth without stating that they would be liable if something happened to them if I didn’t opt for the scaling and root planing. But, my son is a different story. I cointacted our previous dentist and asked them to look at my sons dental records with their office and see if what I was told at Arrowhead Dental Group held any water. They were appalled and stated that no there was nothing wrong with his teeth that would warrent anyone to do scaling and root plaining on them. All Arrowhead Dental Group wants to do is sell you services you don’t need. Stay away from them!
