Dental Innovations

For over 40 years, Dr. Richard Baker has been serving as a dentist in Mesa and has always been dedicated to providing patients the best possible dental care he can. Ever since he was young, he was exposed to the field of dentistry thanks to his father, who was an orthodontist. He would even help him out in the dental lab! While this introduction to dentistry ignited his curiosity, he found himself becoming more and more interested as he grew older. Thanks to his hard work at an inner-city hospital, he could pay for his dental school bills immediately after graduating, allowing him to start his own practice soon after. He remembers his time at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland fondly and has since pursued continuing education on subjects like sedation dentistry, metal-free restorations, orthodontics, clear braces and more. Outside the office, he's spending time with his five adult daughters and 14 grandchildren.
