The California Dental Association has strongly suggested that all dentists practicing in California suspend all non-essential or non-urgent dental work until further notice. The health and safety of our patients and team members is our top priority so we must comply. In our best efforts to help contain the spread of COVID-19 we are only seeing emergency patients for the time being. You can always call us to submit your emergency, however, we have set up an emergency form to expedite the process. Form: steelecanyondental.com/emergency Stay Healthy - We look forward to speaking with you soon!

We miss our patients and feel just as restless as you are staying safe at home. We can’t wait to come back to work and see all of you again!
