Services
During my career as a dentist in the United States Army, I gave much thought to what my ideal dental practice would be like when it came time to leave the service. Carefree Smile is a practice that provides quality and compassionate dental care in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. It is an honor to be entrusted by you to provide your dental care.
Dental veneers, also referred to as porcelain veneers or dental laminates are thin, custom-fabricated tooth-colored material that is used to cover the front surface of a person's teeth to improve appearance and function. The veneers are permanently bonded to the teeth to improve shape, size or color.
Are you ready for the perfect smile without any pain and discomfort? Lumineers are a revolutionary way to completely change the way you look. Lumineers are porcelain shells that painlessly bond to your teeth without shots or drilling. Lumineers can be an alternative to traditional veneers that require shaving down some of the tooth's natural enamel.
Invisalign Braces are a great alternative to the traditional braces for children and adults! Straighten your teeth without the wires and bands with the nearly invisible Invisalign Clear Braces. At Carefree Smile, we treat patients in Phoenix, North Scottsdale, Cave Creek, and Carefree.
In the past, straightening your teeth with braces was a hassle - years of continuous, painful adjustments, self image issues, uncomfortable orthodontics and numerous trips to the orthodontists office.Invisalign clear braces has changed the face of orthodontics for more than a half million patients since 1999 - and now, they are proven safe and recommended for teens as well.

Carefree smiles is the best one on one personal and family oriented dentist in Cave Creek. Highly recommend DR. Jones. The staff is so kind and always make me feel special. There not a corporate style chain. They really know how important it is to keep customer retention and are so good hearted. Thank you for all my families continued dental work and always accommodating us.

Was looking for a dentist as we just moved out here. Tried another dentist and ending up walking out on them as they tried to oversell me on everything like a used car lot. Carefree Smile was incredible. They did my cleaning and went over how to keep my tarter down and ill be going back every 90 days for sure. Great experience.

Just completed some major dental work with Dr. Swainhart. I cannot be more pleased. Today I received the final part of my implant and it is far superior to work which I had done by a "Specialist". Dr. Swainhart takes his time and made sure I understood everything and followed up at every step. I can recommend him and his staff without hesitation

After losing my front tooth crown this weekend I called Dr. Swainhart’s office in a panic. They were able to accommodate my schedule and get me in quickly. Everyone was so kind and friendly! He walked me through each step of my upcoming treatment plan and answered all my questions to put me at ease. I am looking forward to fixing my smile and so thankful to have found Carefree Smile!

Love, love, love Dr. Swainhart and his practice! Recently had a cleaning, and
Kelly, my dental hygienist, did a super job in keeping me comfortable. She puts a topical gel on to numb me before cleaning, and it makes such a difference. I no longer dread cleanings! And Dr. Swainhart’s assistant recently put a crown on (my first ever): she knew her stuff, was professional and fast. I’m very happy with the fit. I highly recommend Dr. Swainhart and his team.

Like many people, I loathe going to the dentist. Childhood trauma at the hands of a dentist comes rushing back each time I smell the smells and hear the sounds associated with modern dentistry. I've been to a few dentists in the Valley and most give lip service to "we know a lot of people don't like the dentist." Everyone in this office demonstrates genuine empathy- even Dr. Swainhart says he doesn't like going to the dentist. This group does everything possible to ensure the patient is comfortable. Dr. Swainhart and his staff are kind, gentle and fun to be around. They

If you're like me (& most individuals really) you don't enjoy, and sometimes dread, going to the dentist. I hadn't been in to see a dentist for years for this reason alone. But Carefree Smile is phenomenal- made me feel at ease and comfortable during my visit yesterday. This team really took the time to make my visit enjoyable. Honestly, my teeth have never felt so clean! Highly recommend going here!

I have been a patient since Dr. Swainhart came to the practice. He had to complete my Invisalign treatment which was midway when he arrived. I was very apprehensive but he was great and I had a good result. I recently needed a new crown and, again I was apprehensive. He did a great job and I can't say where the crown is located.

What a fantastic place to go to keep your smile looking great; even for 70 year teeth. Wonderful staff, great and friendly "state of the art" Dentist in San Swainhart. Dr Swainhart even took care of my dental emergency when they were closed; without hesitation he said "come on in" and did everything by himself.
I can only sign their praises.

Our family loves Dr. Finocchiaro! I personally have been seeing Dr. F since I was a child, and he has always been exceptionally thorough and detailed in his services. He has a wonderful bedside manner, which eases the anxiety that is often associated with having dental work done. Now that my own children are old enough, they too get to see Dr. F and he is so gentle and patient with my kiddos. Now they look forward to seeing him and will ask him questions about the cleaning/x-ray process (which he enthusiastically explains to them). As a resident of Scottsdale, I find he is absolutely worth

Best dentist I've ever seen! Dr. Finocchiaro is super caring and thorough in exams, recommending care and good habits, and diagnosing problems. Since moving from Arizona, I've had troubling finding a dentist and staff at this level of excellence. I feel like others just glance at my teeth and don't really spend time on me, & rush through their other patients, but this office really cares and always takes a close look without wasting anyone's time. Everyone in the office is friendly and professional. My new dentist in CA always compliments the condition of my teeth, and I

I am a fairly new patient, having had another dentist who was good but I just didn't trust. Every time I went to see her i "needed a crown". After searching and searchingI found Dr. Finocchiaro through a friends recommendation and i simply needed a filling! He is gentle, kind and caring and surrounds himself with a staff that reflects the same values. My only regret is that I didn't find him earlier!
