Dr. Karren and his team are committed to making patients feel like family. We do not try to rush a high volume of patients in and out of the office. Instead, we take our time with each patient to show we genuinely care about them. We always make sure patients fully understand all treatment options before any procedure and never pressure them into treatments they are not comfortable with.
Karren Dental is devoted to making dental care easy for patients. Our team goes above and beyond to help patients understand their insurance coverage, and do our best to file and facilitate all claims. We take care of the difficult parts of dealing with insurance so you dont have to!
Dustin Karren, DMD, brings more than two decades of experience as a general dentist to his leadership position at Karren Dental in Phoenix, Arizona. We sat down to ask Dr. Karren a few questions, to find out more about who he is and what he hopes to bring to his practice
'I grew up in a small rural town in Southern Alberta, Canada. As a youth I had various farm labor jobs like cleaning manure from stalls and bailing hay that helped me realize that school was important! I knew I wanted to go to college but didn 't know what I wanted to study. One summer a cousin visited us who had just graduated from college and was going into Dentistry. We talked and he convinced me that I should give Dentistry a try. From that point on, my sights were set and I made a goal to become a Dentist.'
'On most weekends you 'll find me doing outdoor activities with my wife and kids. We enjoy landscaping, paddle boarding, and hiking in the Superstitions... when it 's not too hot. I 've enjoyed coaching baseball teams for my son and playing tennis and golf with my two daughters.'
'I love cooking/grilling/smoking meat on my smoker, my specialty is Thanksgiving Turkey...ask me and I 'll tell you the secret. I also play ice hockey on a team of old guys in an adult recreational hockey league.'
