Dental Hygiene Therapy
Expert Service and Tools
Dental Hygiene Therapy is foundational to all the care we provide at Dental Arts of Tucson. It’s never “just a cleaning.” Our Registered Dental Hygienists work in concert with our dentist to determine the baseline of your long-term oral health, and we customize the level and frequency of care to your demonstrated needs. We want to help you keep all the bone and gum tissue that supports your teeth. “Gum recession” does not have to be a fact of life.
Most importantly, we take the time necessary to help you develop skills to care for yourself effectively at home every day. We can see the results of ineffective techniques before you can feel them or see them. We are dedicated to making sure you feel comfortable with the toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss. And we make sure you are trained and comfortable using other tools customized to your unique circumstances.
It's What We Do Best
The American Dental Association recommends individuals with healthy teeth and gums have their teeth cleaned twice a year, but diabetic patients and pregnant patients should have their teeth cleaned more frequently to prevent further periodontal issues.
Dr. Maskell cares about your and your family’s health. While there are many dental products on the market that are meant to help protect or correct your teeth, some can be harmful to your health. Chemicals like Bisphenol-A (BPA) are still widely used in sealants and to make resin-based dental restorative materials and are toxic to your overall health.

I have never had a dentist who was more thorough and professional. Dr. Maskell takes the time to explain various considerations, going well beyond peeking in your mouth to make sure the hygienist didn’t miss anything. I take my kids to Dr. Maskell as well – he’s equally amazing with adults and children!

I’d never met Dr. Maskell before, and I felt reassured that what may be a protracted series of procedures will be handled by him and his staff with professionalism and care. This seems likes a really nice place to work!

A positive experience from start to finish. A pleasant office with kind and professional staff. Dr Maskell is very personable and knowledgeable. He took the time necessary to help me fully understand what my issues were as well as my treatment options. No hard sell. His assistant, the hygienist and Lori at the front desk were all proficient and excellent at what they do. I am returning because I was treated well and feel confident that I will continue to receive excellent care here.

Since my prior posting, I have had a wisdom tooth removed and a crown fitted by Dr Maskell and his assistant, Maria. Both procedures were done expertly and I am very happy with the outcomes. My wife and I continue to be impressed by the positive atmosphere that is apparent throughout the office.

Awesome experience; highly recommend! I struggle with major dental anxiety and Dr. Maskell and his team were so welcoming and calming. They go above and beyond to make sure you have a comfortable experience. Cleanings and fillings were gentle and pain free. Dr. Maskell gave me more than great care for my pearly whites; he’s mades dentistry so much more approachable and stress-free for me (which is HUGE!) Big thank to him and his team!

I live in Connecticut and was cat-sitting for my daughter, Kathryn, in Tucson- (for 8 days)
The FIRST day, my SIX -tooth FRONT-top bridge fell completely off. So I called around and got either no help or was offered help that would cost $$$$hundreds. I fortunately found my daughter’s appt card for Dr Maskell and called his office. Not only did Dr Maskell see me, but he did a temporary fix, offered his professional opinion for what I needed back in CT, was very kind, and charged me only for the x-rays and his time. Great experience. I appreciate Dr Maskell and his crew very much. I’m confident that Kathryn will have a fantastic dental experience at Dental Art . Thanks Dr Maskell and associates
