About Hentges Dental (formerly Christensen Family Dentistry)
Hentges Dental, formerly Christensen Family Dentistry, is a general-dentistry practice on North Stapley Drive in north Mesa. The practice changed names as ownership transitioned but kept the same patient charts and recall schedule, which matters for households who've been with the office for years and are concerned about continuity through a name change. The office handles routine and restorative care for north Mesa households on a long-term basis — cleanings, exams, fillings, crowns, root canals, basic extractions, and gum care.
Patients searching for a long-time family dentist in Mesa, AZ, affordable family dental care in Mesa, or general dentistry in Mesa, AZ can find a complete generalist program here, including cleanings, tooth-colored fillings, crowns, bridges, and root canal therapy, alongside basic extractions, gum-disease treatment, and pediatric exams. Teeth whitening is available for cosmetic touch-ups, and the post-name-change continuity preserves the long-term patient history.
If you were a Christensen Family Dentistry patient, the practice is the same office under new ownership — your chart, your recall schedule, and your insurance relationship carry over without re-intake.
Pricing here runs in the standard range for an established north Mesa general practice — most major insurance plans are accepted, written treatment estimates are provided before any procedure begins, and the office leans toward conservative care rather than aggressive upsell. For north Mesa families anchoring their dental care across the ownership transition, this practice belongs on the shortlist of established Stapley Drive generalists. New-patient intake typically fits into a first-cleaning slot within a couple of weeks, and the office handles coordinated household scheduling so multiple family members can stack their visits on the same trip rather than scattering across the week. Office hours typically include early-morning and end-of-day appointment slots, and emergency visits for established patients are typically fit in same-week rather than referred to separate urgent-care offices across the broader metro. 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.
Hentges Dental, formerly Christensen Family Dentistry, on North Stapley Drive provides general and family dental care for north Mesa households with continuity from the practice's earlier name.

Great experience at this dental office. My dad is in a wheelchair and the staff was super friendly and helpful as I was able to maneuver him into the chair so that he could get his cleaning done. The staff is very friendly and helpful and have great experience here will definitely be coming back to this dentistry!
I came here for a 2nd option and was so scared it would be the same information. As soon as I got here they greeted me and I filled out a few minutes of paperwork and I was in to see Dr. Hentges. He took a couple of X-rays and within a few minutes he was explaining everything. He got right to the point and was very knowledgeable about my situation and referred me to a periodontist to get the exact professional I personally needed. Dr. Hentges was calm and confident gentle and reassuring. I will be bringing the family here from now on. Thank you Dr. Hentges your the best dentist I have ever been to and look forward to coming to you for all my family's dental needs.
Had a great experience here! Have been having my wisdom teeth removed one at a time and have tried other dentists around the valley, terrible experiences each time. My experience here at Christensen was excellent. No pain, quick and thoughtful procedure, and good explanation. Don't waste your time with other places or national chains. Support small businesses like this!
Wow! I hate the dentist! I mean, I absolutely dreeead the dentist! (Terrible experiences) BUT, coming here was the best decision and may have just changed my mind. Every single person I came in contact with was so incredibly nice, inviting and down to earth. From the front desk gals, to dental hygienist’s and of course Dr. Christensen! My teeth are awful and I felt zero shame or judgement if anything, the opposite. They made me feel better and optimistic about the future of my teeth. I had to have an urgent extraction of a very problematic root canal and the care I received was amazing! In less than 10 minutes it was all done and over with zero discomfort. I was told I was going to be very sore for a few days but I kid you not it’s been one day and I’ve been perfectly fine with ibuprofen. So fine I just spent the entire day hiking in Payson with the family. Lol Can’t thank them enough! I actually look forward to getting the rest of my mouth taken care of.
Absolutely love the staff here, everyone is so friendly! Kat is especially great in what she does, Dr. Christensen is very informative and knows what he's doing! I've never felt more comfortable in a place where I'm usually not! Overall my experience was amazing and continues to be each time I go in, the office is beautiful as well. Definitely recommend this office!
