At the intersection of precision and passion, Dr. Dawson and Dr. Turke come together, embodying both the meticulousness of a scientist and the flair of an artist. But that’s not where their personalities end; they’re also known to indulge in the occasional awkward dance-off.

Their journey began at the esteemed Midwestern University School of Dental Medicine in Glendale, AZ. A sense of camaraderie and a shared vision of exceptional patient care blossomed during their time there. This bond was solidified further when they trained at the Implant Pathway, honing their skills in cutting-edge dental implant procedures. From providing traditional braces to Invisalign®, they are able to provide comprehensive orthodontic services for most adults.

Before establishing Smile Science Dental Spa, both Dr. Dawson and Dr. Turke gained invaluable experience working in high-volume corporate practices that catered predominantly to Medicaid patients. This environment honed their skills in handling a myriad of dental emergencies, from root canals and tooth extractions to more intricate cases, fortifying their reputation as proficient and compassionate dental professionals.

While both bring a wealth of expertise to the table, Dr. Dawson furthered his commitment to excellence by immersing himself in a multitude of specialized training. He completed the Comprehensive Straight Wire Orthodontics courses under the tutelage of Dr. Bradford R. Williams at the American Orthodontic Society. Additionally, he has had the privilege to train under Bill Strupp, a global authority in restorative and cosmetic dentistry, via the Simplifying Complex Seminar. This rigorous training repertoire extends to obtaining a 1303 Oral Conscious Sedation permit from the State of Arizona, allowing him to offer patients the comfort of moderate conscious sedation safely within the office environment. His relentless pursuit of knowledge also led him to the Spear Institute, where he delved deep into lecture series covering cosmetic, implant, and restorative dentistry.

Yet, it’s not just about the qualifications. Their deep roots in the Glendale community give them an unmatched understanding of local needs and aspirations. Together, Dr. Dawson and Dr. Turke have not only built a dental practice but have also nurtured a community haven. At Smile Science Dental Spa, they seamlessly blend their individual strengths to craft smiles, foster trust, and ensure that every patient feels at home, whether they’re coming in for a routine check-up or a transformative dental procedure.

Their commitment to Glendale, their passion for dentistry, and yes, even their awkward dance moves, make them a duo that’s both relatable and revered. At Smile Science Dental Spa, you’re not just another patient; you’re a valued member of a community where science meets art, and where dentistry is danced to a different beat.
