About Stacy Tracy, DDS

I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. I decided to become a dentist when I was only 10 years old. One sunny afternoon my mouth and a set of monkey bars ran into each other. Needless to say the monkey bars won. After many years of reconstructive dentistry (oral surgery, root canals, braces, and bonding), I decided that I wanted to become a dentist and fix other peoples teeth the same way my dentist fixed mine. I attended Dental School at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio, where I graduated near the top of my class (Cum Laude) and received numerous honors and awards. I graduated in 1994, the same year that my school was ranked the Best Dental School in the country by U.S. News and World Report. I am very proud of this fact. I feel that I received an excellent education. After graduation, I moved to Arizona. I worked in a group practice in Scottsdale until I started my family dental practice in Tempe in 1998. I am a member of numerous professional dental organizations including: The American Dental Association; The Arizona State Dental Association; The Central Arizona Dental Society; The Academy of General Dentistry; and The Scottsdale/Paradise Valley Dental Study Club. I have completed extensive post-graduate continuing education in my ongoing pursuit of providing the latest and best possible dental care to my patients. In addition, I am a Certified Invisalign Provider and Certified in the use of the Soft Tissue Laser. I have completed a 35 hour residency in implant treatment planning and restoration in conjunction with our periodontist/surgeon, Dr. Mark Waring. I know firsthand the benefits from cosmetic dentistry. After a childhood injury to my front teeth, I was very self conscious about my smile. But thanks to porcelain veneers and at-home teeth whitening/bleaching, I have my beautiful smile back. What a difference it has made! Our office has participated in the past several years with “Give Kids A Smile,” an ADA sponsored event which provides much needed dental care to low income children. We find it to be a very fun and rewarding event for us all. I am married to a wonderful man, Mark, who is not a dentist (a commonly asked question). Mark is a Scottsdale native, but attended college in Texas, where we met. We are blessed with two wonderful children. Our son, Dylan, was born in September 1996, and our daughter, Riley, was born in February 2001. My family and I enjoy traveling and going to the movies together. I am a BIG movie buff and a wiz at pop culture trivia!
