Dr Gailey grew up in Tucson, Arizona, the 3rd of six children, on the east side of town in a humble home. He became an Eagle Scout, graduated Valedictorian of Rincon High School, and led and participated in numerous community service projects. Following graduation, he went onto dedicate two years to full-time missionary service in Puerto Rico, proselyting in the name of Jesus Christ. Following his mission, he graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Arizona, where he met and married the love of his life, Clarisa.
In the professional realm, Timothy Gailey received his dental degree from Oregon Health & Sciences University School of Dentistry, pursuing advanced coursework beyond the dental requirements in endodontics (root canals), cosmetics, and implants. He has continued that educational pattern as a doctor and was awarded the Fellowship Award from the Academy of General Dentistry in 2012 and the Mastership Award in 2022. This latter level is achieved by less than 2% of dentists nationally and recognizes Dr Gailey’s commitment and competence to excellence in dentistry at all levels.
Dr. Gailey stands out among dentists as one who offers nearly all dental services within his office. He “caters to cowards” and enjoys the opportunity to serve others and alleviate dental anxiety and pain. Dr. Gailey both places and restores implants, removes impacted wisdom teeth, places porcelain veneers, crowns and fillings, makes beautiful dentures, performs advanced gum therapies, does root canals, loves children’s dentistry, and offers nearly every other procedure. He has been providing IV and oral sedation dentistry for over 10 years to both adults and children, providing a calm and relaxing experience while dental work is performed.
Dr. Gailey has a large family and is a proud father and, recently, a grandfather as well! He loves spending time with his family. In his free time, Dr. Gailey loves the basketball! Come see our basketball dental treatment room! (Go Wildcats! Go Suns!) He loves backpacking, the outdoors, dirt-biking and running. He has completed the Phoenix marathon and half-marathon. He loves playing with his kids and fixing up their old house with his wife. He also enjoys weekly service in his church and participating in community events.
Dr Gailey is a member of the American Dental Association (ADA), Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), Arizona Dental Association (AZDA), and the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology.
