If you're anxious about coming to the dentist, we would like to bring you comfort. At Advanced Dental Concepts, you'll find masterful care in a place that feels like home, from a team that takes time to listen to you, explain your options clearly, and let you decide what's right for your smile.
Dr. Sander I. White has been in private practice for more than 50 years, and some of our patients have trusted him with their smiles for decades. Today, Dr. White and Dr. Zainab Al-Azzawi care for you together, sharing the same patient-centered approach.
We never want you to feel rushed or pressured. Our dentists take time to get to know you, understand your needs and concerns, and make sure you fully understand your diagnosis and options so you can make confident decisions about your care. You'll never be pushed into a treatment plan you aren't comfortable with.
Our practice focuses on three things: treating complex cases, caring for anxious patients, and listening to you as a partner in your health. Our goal is to build a long-term relationship with you and help you keep your teeth and gums healthy for years to come.
We're also your advocate when it comes to dental insurance. We'll help you get the best coverage we can, but insurance doesn't get to decide what care you receive. You do.
Dr. Zainab Al-Azzawi, who goes by "Dr. Z," earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine. Before coming to Penn, she earned her Bachelor of Dental Science in 2015 and spent four years practicing in Jordan, caring for a diverse population of patients. Her clinical interests include Invisalign, dental implants, and restorative dentistry, and she is a member of the American Dental Association and the American Academy of Clear Aligners. Learn more about Dr. Al-Azzawi.
Dr. Sander I. White graduated from Temple University Dental School in 1971 and has been in private practice for more than 50 years. He has completed more than 2,000 hours of continuing education, served as a clinical instructor at both Temple University Dental School and the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, and is a Fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. Dr. White is reducing his clinical hours to spend more time with his family, but he continues to see patients and consult on treatment in a more limited capacity.
