– Objects lodged between teeth
– Severe tooth pain or sensitivity

– Trauma to the jaws, gums, or teeth

Meet Our Doctors
I'm here because I love to help.

Dr. Emily Bujnoski
Dr. Emily Bujnoski leads Fox Family Dental with a genuine love for people and a thoughtful, patient-centered approach to care. She believes dentistry should feel welcoming, comfortable, and collaborative, helping every patient feel confident in their smile.
Originally from Erie, PA, Dr. Bujnoski graduated Cum Laude from Elon University (N.C.) where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Biology with minors in Chemistry and Neuroscience. She moved to the desert to earn her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree at A.T. Still University, the Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health (ASDOH). While at ASDOH, she also completed a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree, with specific dental emphasis. Upon graduation, Dr. Bujnoski was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon honor society, a distinction awarded to the top 10% of dental school graduates.
Dr. Bujnoski is passionate about continuing education and advancing the field of dentistry. She is an active member of the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), where she serves in local, regional, and national leadership positions. She is also involved in the American Dental Association (ADA) as a member of the ADA’s Institute for Diversity in Leadership, a program focused on developing leadership skills for emerging leaders in dentistry. In 2022, she was named one of “10 Dentists to Watch” by AGD’s Impact magazine. In 2025, Dr. Bujnoski earned her Fellowship in the AGD (FAGD), an award earned by only 6% of general dentists.
Outside of the office, Dr. Bujnoski leads an active lifestyle and loves staying on the move. She enjoys running marathons, hiking the Valley’s tallest mountains, trying new restaurants and recipes, and traveling both across the country and internationally. Most of all, she cherishes spending time with her husband and their adorable Pomeranian, Teddy.

Dr. Alex Behnam
Originally from Los Angeles, Dr. Alex Behnam earned his degree in Psychology from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) before completing his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree at A.T. Still University’s Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health (ASDOH). While at ASDOH, he also earned a Certificate in Public Health Dentistry. Upon graduation, Dr. Behnam was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon honor society, a distinction awarded to the top 10% of dental school graduates. His experience at ASDOH allowed Dr. Behnam to discover both a passion for dental care and a deep connection to the desert community he now calls home.
Dr. Behnam believes dentistry is about more than just teeth – it’s about trust, education, and creating a comfortable experience for every patient. Known for his calm demeanor and relationship-first approach, he makes patients feel cared for and confident in their smile. Because no two people or smiles are alike, Dr. Behnam enjoys tailoring treatment to each individual and meeting patients wherever they are in their dental journey. He advances his expertise through active membership in the American Dental Association and the Academy of General Dentistry.
Outside of the office, Dr. Behnam enjoys staying active and connected to the Arizona lifestyle he’s grown to love. He’s a big fan of basketball (go Clippers!) and football (go Chargers!), enjoys hiking local trails, and values time spent with his wife and their dog, Teddy.
