Why Patients Choose Dr. Vasquez for Cosmetic Work
Gentle Hands, Beautiful Results
Many patients who come to Dr. Vasquez for cosmetic dentistry have some level of dental anxiety. Her AEGD residency at Banner University gave her advanced training in sedation techniques — which means she can offer oral sedation or nitrous oxide for patients who need help relaxing during cosmetic procedures. The result is a comfortable experience and beautiful work.
An Eye for Natural Aesthetics
Dr. Vasquez's approach to cosmetic dentistry is rooted in enhancing what nature gave you, not replacing it with something artificial. She's known for her exceptional dental bonding work — a technique that requires a sculptor's touch to build up, shape, and polish composite resin to match the natural contours and shade of surrounding teeth.
Bilingual Consultations
Dr. Vasquez conducts full consultations in both English and Spanish, ensuring that every patient understands their options, the process, and the expected results. For the large Spanish-speaking community in Gilbert, Queen Creek, and the Southeast Valley, this makes a meaningful difference.

What to Expect at Your Cosmetic Consultation
Step 1: Listen and learn. Dr. Vasquez starts every cosmetic consultation by asking what you want to change about your smile. She listens carefully, examines your teeth, and takes digital photos and scans to evaluate your options.
Step 2: Explore options. Depending on your goals and budget, Dr. Vasquez will present a range of options — from conservative approaches like bonding and whitening to more transformative treatments like veneers or a full smile makeover. She explains the pros, cons, timeline, and cost of each.
Step 3: Create a plan. Once you've chosen your direction, Dr. Vasquez develops a detailed treatment plan with clear timelines and pricing. Financing through CareCredit and the Summit Savings Plan is available.
Step 4: Treatment. Dr. Vasquez performs your cosmetic work with precision and care, offering sedation for any patient who wants it. Most bonding and whitening treatments are completed in a single visit.
"I was embarrassed by a chipped front tooth for years. Dr. Vasquez repaired it with bonding in one appointment and it looks completely natural. She even matched the slight variation in color between my teeth. I can't believe the difference it's made in my confidence."
