I love dentistry for a couple of reasons. I mean, one is you get to take people out of pain and you’re helping them. And a lot of times it’s an emergency situation, people broken tooth sometimes and you’re helping them, you know, they have an event, a wedding or something like that, and you’re the one that can help them as well as doing life-changing work for people.
You have people that literally have left our office in tears after we’ve done cosmetic work on them. You know, they’ve come in in their whole life. Sometimes people, you know, couldn’t do it for one reason or another, whether it’s financial or other reasons, they’ve always just didn’t like their smile.
And, you know, for us to be able to give them that life-changing experience is just something that’s very rewarding. I’ve been a dentist almost 30 years now, just about 30. And just the interactions with people, you get, I’ve met people from all over the world, really, that I’ve worked on.
And it’s just the interactions and again, going back to helping people, you know, it’s something that not everybody can do depending on what their jobs are. And it’s just a, it’s just a rewarding feeling overall. Like I said, relationships are great and being able to help people.
I went to Arizona State University and got my BS in clinical nutrition. And from there, I went to Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and got my DMD degree there. And loved both places.
I loved Arizona, loved Boston, but I love Arizona more. So here I am back here.
Owen M. Waldman, DMD
Dr. Owen Waldman discovered his love for Arizona while studying at Arizona State University, graduating in 1991. After earning his Doctor of Dental Medicine from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 1995, he built a thriving practice in Orange County, NY. In 2005, his passion for the Valley of the Sun brought him back to Arizona.
Today, Dr. Waldman brings his extensive expertise to the Scottsdale community through the Waldman Dental Group. His patients appreciate his precise attention to detail, use of advanced technology, and natural ability to create personalized treatment plans that align with their goals. His efficient, gentle approach helps patients feel at ease during every visit.
When he’s not enhancing smiles at the office, Dr. Waldman enjoys an active lifestyle with his wife Cori and their four children: West, Cali, and twins Briggs and Ellie. Along with their dog Sonny, the family embraces Arizona’s outdoor activities — from hiking trails to biking adventures.

Amazing Dentist and Staff! My husband has been going there for 10 years. I recently came in for a second opinion after being told I needed a root canal and a crown on one of my molars. They were able to check the tooth, redo the filling and my tooth is fine, all within the same visit. I am truly grateful that I didn’t have to have such an extensive treatment. I plan on going to this practice in the future!

Dr. Waldman and his team define excellence. I first visited their office in 2016 when I needed work done on my bridge. He replaced my bridge and it looks so natural and fits perfectly. As someone who has experienced multiple dental procedures throughout my life, the dentist chair has always brought up emotions of fear and anxiety. Dr. Waldman and his team have always made feel feel relaxed, comfortable and heard. Thank you team!!!

After avoiding the dentist for the past 19 years I’m at the point where my teeth need major attention. A coworker had referred me here. The whole staff here at Waldman Dental Group were very friendly and patient with me with all of my questions and concerns. I was pleased to discover that the technology has improved since I last had been to a dentist and there are options to assist those with extreme anxiety like myself. They came up with a course of action for the next year to maximize my insurance allowances and I’m now on my way to improve my dental health!

I’ve been coming to Dr. Waldman since 2006 when I moved to Phoenix. This office is amazing! Everyone and I mean everyone is so nice and caring! I was so nervous my first visit because I had a horrible experience at a dentist when I was younger. Dr. Waldman and his team have made it so I’m not nervous to see the dentist! I have recommended him to many friends and family. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I highly recommend Dr. Waldman and his team!
