White Dentistry is a friendly, full-service clinic in Nogales, Sonora, just over the U.S.–Mexico border from Nogales, Arizona.
The clinic welcomes international patients for general care and specialist treatments, including root canals, crowns and veneers, dentures, laser whitening, and dental implants. Founded in 2010 by Dr. Rivero, White Dentistry was built to deliver most dental needs under one roof, using modern diagnostics and up-to-date treatment protocols to keep visits efficient.
Services include exams and cleanings; tooth-colored fillings; inlays and onlays; crowns and veneers in porcelain, zirconia, and porcelain-fused-to-metal; bridges; dentures and partials, including flexible frames; simple and surgical or impacted extractions; endodontics for anterior, premolar, and molar root canals, plus post/core build-ups; cosmetic laser whitening and take-home kits; diagnostics with single X-rays and consultations; IV sedation by an anesthesiologist when indicated; and dental implants from single implants with abutment and crown to full-arch options such as implant-supported overdentures and implant-supported porcelain bridges.
If terms like abutment, overdenture, or post/core appear in your plan, the team explains each in everyday language before treatment.

The best dental experience ever, I had 2 implants, 5 fillings on front teeth up near the gum line that made my teeth look great. The best thing about White Dental for me is that I know I will always see Dr. Rivero. The office is clean, comfortable with state of the art equipment. I also really appreciate that Dr. Rivero doesn't try to upsell services you don't need. Plus they guarantee the best price.
This is a spotless and patient friendly practice. The staff speak fluent English and the prices are more reasonable than other area places.
I honestly can not rate value or reccomend due to the fact I could not get anything done or it would void my lifetime warrenty at previous dentist. They were very friendly, clean and probably the nicest building in the area.
Fine
I come from ct to see dr rivero he is very professional doesn’t rush you out to get to the next customer really cares👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
