AboutCasas Adobes Dentistry
Casas Adobes Dentistry is a Tucson based family dentist practice that treats patients of all ages. We are committed to delivering the highest quality dental care and do so using advanced dental equipment. We are a cosmetic dentist that offers services like checkups, teeth cleaning, crowns, veneers, and more.
Be Comfortable, Warm & Cozy
For your comfort, we offer fuzzy blankets to stay cozy and dark sunglasses to help make your experience more enjoyable.
Wash Away Your Fears
For those who have dental anxiety, there are several levels of care to create a relaxing experience. We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation medications. If that isn’t enough, some patients enjoy their experience best when an anesthesiologist provides complete anesthesia so you can sleep for your dental visit.
Christopher Chin, MPH, DMD
Dr. Christopher Chin was born and raised in Southern California. After graduating from the Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health in Mesa, Arizona, he spent his first several years of practice obtaining a Master’s in Public Health degree while serving in the National Health Service Corps in rural Missouri. He then went on to focus on advanced dental education in surgical and cosmetic techniques. His continuing commitment to learning the newest and best techniques has allowed him to achieve a Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry. This is an honor only 6% of general dentists in the United States and Canada have achieved.
Dr. Chin and his wife fell in love with the desert and outdoor activities of Southern Arizona and decided to call Tucson “home” for good. They enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and camping, especially when their dogs Taffy and Missile can join them. Dr. Chin enjoys meeting new people, including getting to know all of his patients.
Dr. Chin likes hiking in Catalina State Park, biking on the Chuck Huckleberry Loop, and camping in the saguaro-filled desert.
Dr. Chin loves meeting new people while volunteering with organizations such as Give Kids A Smile, Flying Samaritans, and Smiles for Veterans.
We look forward to getting to know you and you get to know us.

I have been working in the dental field for many years and love all things dental related! Continuing education and staying up to date on products and services is very important to me. I love connecting and creating an amazing dental experience for any patient I meet! When I am not at work I love being outdoors. I am a big sports fan, so any chance I get to go to a game I AM THERE! Go Bengals!

Veronica
Hygienist
I have been in dentistry since 2017 and it is my passion. The best thing about working in dentistry for me is that I get to make a difference in my patient’s oral health. While not at work I enjoy working out, skating and recently started making homemade soaps. I spend my free time with my husband and our two kids.
Sarah
Hygienist
After graduating from The University of Arizona in 1999, I went back to school and started working in hygiene. Working in dentistry gives me the ability to connect oral health to whole body health and educate my patients on the importance of our field for whole body care. When I’m not at work, I am part of the Southern Arizona Rescue Association, enjoy trail and mud runs and hiking.
