The staff provided excellent care, were nice to talk to and made a very comfortable visit. They were able to provide fillings to several chipped teeth with short notice while visiting Phoenix from out of country. Both myself and my dentist back home agreed the quality of the fillings were well done, and the colour was a great match. Highly recommend for the great staff and professional work done.
Half a Million People Call Mesa Home. Finding a Dentist Should Be Simple

Dr. Jeremy Chan, DDS, trained at the Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry at University of the Pacific. He is Vivos-certified and holds membership in the AADSM and AASM. No upsells, no pressure, and no surprises at the desk. You get experience, continuity, and a plan in plain words at every visit.
Living Near Mesa
Mesa is the third largest city in Arizona, with a population of over 500,000 residents. It covers approximately 138 square miles in Maricopa County, directly east of Tempe. Mesa sits at a higher elevation than much of the Valley. Its name comes from the Spanish word for flat-topped hill. Wide streets and established neighborhoods give the city a settled feel. Easy access to desert recreation adds to that appeal.
The Hohokam people built one of the largest prehistoric canal networks in the Americas. Much of that network ran across what is now Mesa. Mormon settlers arrived in 1878 and found those ancient canals. They put them back to work to irrigate the new community. The town incorporated in 1883 with a population of 300 people. Mesa Grande Cultural Park on North Date Street preserves a Hohokam ceremonial mound. It was built between 1100 and 1450 AD. That mound is longer and wider than a football field and still stands 27 feet tall today.
Mesa has grown from that original agricultural settlement into a diverse and fast-moving city. Boeing and Banner Health anchor two of the largest employment sectors in town. The Mesa Arts Center in downtown Mesa houses multiple theaters, galleries, and studios. It ranks among the largest arts complexes in the region. Spring training brings thousands of fans to Sloan Park each February and March. The Chicago Cubs prepare for the season there.
Care for Every Age
Mesa families drive west to Tempe Dentistry for care that covers everyone in the household. That includes young children and adults managing complex dental conditions. Dr. Chan sees patients at every stage of dental health. He keeps the same team for routine visits and more involved care. You skip the extra referrals and the extra trips across town.
New patients from Mesa often start with general dentistry and build from there. Tempe Dentistry offers a full range of services:
- Cleanings and checkups for every age, including children and seniors
- Dental implants, crowns, and dentures to restore worn or missing teeth
- Cosmetic dentistry including veneers and teeth whitening for a stronger smile

- TMJ treatment and sleep apnea therapy for patients with airway and jaw concerns
- QuietNite laser treatment as a non-surgical option for snoring and enlarged tonsils
- Same-day emergency dental care when something hurts and cannot wait
One practice handles it all. Your records stay in one place and your provider knows your history. Every appointment starts with a careful exam and honest goals, not a sales pitch.
