About Desert Family Dental
Desert Family Dental is a general-dentistry practice on West Main Street in the Casa Mesa II area of west Mesa, run as a named-owner family practice rather than a chain location. The office is set up for the kind of multi-decade relationships that come from being the dental home for a household — kids, parents, grandparents — through cleanings, fillings, and the eventual crown and bridge work that comes with age. Most appointments here are routine recall visits for existing west Mesa families.
Patients searching for affordable family dental care in Mesa, general dentistry in Mesa, AZ, or a long-time family dentist in Mesa, AZ can find a full generalist program here, including cleanings, exams, tooth-colored fillings, crowns and bridges, and root canal therapy, alongside basic extractions, gum-disease treatment, and routine restorative work. The practice handles teeth whitening for cosmetic touch-ups, and dental emergencies for established families are usually fit in same-week.
If you live in west Mesa near the Main Street corridor, in Casa Mesa, or in the broader 85201 residential pockets and want a Main Street family dentist who knows your kids by name and your insurance plan by heart, this is a practice that suits the long-term stay-put model.
Pricing falls in the standard range for an established west Mesa general practice — the clinic accepts most major insurance plans, treatment estimates are walked through before any appointment, and the office isn't oriented around the high-pressure upsell model some larger chains lean on. Anyone in Mesa picking a regular general dentist should add this practice to their consultation list. New patients can usually be fit into a first-cleaning visit within a couple of weeks rather than long backlogs, and the office is set up for direct insurance billing rather than reimbursement-only paperwork. Office hours typically include early-morning and end-of-day appointment slots that fit working family schedules, and new-patient intake usually fits into a first-cleaning visit within a couple of weeks.
Desert Family Dental on West Main Street in the Casa Mesa II area provides general and family dental care — cleanings, fillings, crowns, and routine restorative work — for west Mesa households.

We have been going to Desert Family Dental for several years and Dr Lee is an excellent Dentist. He is fast and very efficient,friendly and his staff are the best. I would highly recommend anyone to go to Desert Family Dental.
I had my first appointment yesterday and I have to say I’ve neglected my teeth for over 5 years now, all my concerns were addressed , a clear path of a plan was put on paper snd in am beyond excited to finally tackle it . I honestly can’t remember everyone’s names BUT everyone from the very first phone call to front desk to hygienist and dentist were so kind and clear and thorough regarding treatment my concerns payment etc . Thank you I look forward to seeing you all in 2 weeks !
Thank you for the great care!
They are great people they always take care of everyone
They are so thorough and welcoming! I appreciate the doctor explaining everything to me. If you are new plan to spend a couple hours atleast there. They will definitely get all of what you need done same day! I didnt have the time same day so I will be back! Thank you ALL for a great service.
I took a big chance going to a new dentist after 26 years. At first I had them do just a cleaning. But Dr. Lee discovered an old childhood mercury filling with a crack in it. Not only did I not know I still had old fillings, but that I had one with a crack in it. You'd think in 26 years my old dentist would have found it and brought it to my attention. Not only that but my old dentist had just left his practice to his son. The son didn't love what he did...that was obvious. Not only is Dr. Lee a good dentist, but it's clear he loves what he does. He removed that old filling and refilled it with something that's not going to poison my brain, plus sealed the crack. He was so careful, gentle...yet very quick about it. I occasionally get dental emergencies, and now I'm not going to worry about them if I do. You won't go wrong visiting Desert Valley Dental.
Dr. Lee is amazing! Thank you for always putting your patients first and for taking such great care in making every smile look its best. Your team is equally incredible - attentive, friendly, and so caring. I truly appreciate all of you and highly recommend this family dentistry practice! ❤️
I cannot say enough great things about Desert Family Dental. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this team operates at a completely different level. The staff is not only incredibly professional, but they function seamlessly—like a true well-oiled machine. Everyone is warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind, and you can see the respect they have for one another, which creates such a positive and comfortable environment for patients. What really sets them apart is their commitment to patient care. They take the time to walk you through every single step—from financial counseling to your treatment plan—making sure you fully understand everything and feel confident moving forward. There’s no rushing, no confusion—just clear communication and support throughout the entire process. And the follow-up? That was the part that truly impressed me. A few days after my visit, they reached out to check on how I was doing. That level of care and attention is rare and speaks volumes about how much they truly value their patients. This is more than just a dental office—it’s a team that genuinely cares about the people they serve. If you’re looking for top-tier care, professionalism, and a team that goes above and beyond, I highly recommend Desert Family Dental. You will not be disappointed.
I've been going here for 10+ years. Dr Lee is amazing, and I love my hygienist Annie! Des at the desk handles business and is so sweet. Everyone is great! You feel cared for, they stay on schedule and take wonderful care of their patients. I recommend them to anyone who tells me they are looking for a dentist.
In the past, I would postpone cleanings & reschedule appointments simply to delay the inevitable. Now, that apprehension has dissolved due to an AMAZING dental hygienist, KIMBERLY. She recommended Nitrous Oxide Gas for my anxiety and now I attend my visits consistently, without hesitation. My oral health reflects the difference. My sincere gratitude goes to Kimberly and Dr. Scott Lee. Their professionalism, patience, and thoughtful care have not only improved my dental hygiene but have restored my confidence in seeking the dental treatment I once dreaded. Highly recommend Desert Family Dental!!!
Hygienist I had was great! Clean office. When I scheduled the appointment, they told me one time. They didn’t mention that the first 45 minutes would be for imaging and X-rays and that the actual cleaning was an hour after the time I scheduled. They also didn’t tell me that my insurance was out of their network until I was checking out. So the charge at the end was a surprise.
