Specialties
Karren Dental is a full-service dental practice serving the communities in and around Phoenix, Arizona. Under the leadership of Dustin Karren, DMD, the providers have spent decades working to boost the dental health and confidence of the children, men, and women in their care.
Since 1986, Karren Dental has earned a reputation for excellence in Phoenix and the surrounding areas. Dr. Karren is a firm believer in the private practice dentistry model, and he has chosen to avoid working in a corporate setting where patients are viewed as little more than numbers.
Services are provided with the patient's unique set of needs as the central focus. When restorative care is needed, patients are provided with all the available options.
Advancements in dental technology have created treatments that were unimaginable in decades past. The very latest materials and platforms are used to shape diagnostic and treatment outcomes.
From a child's first dental visit to root canals, dental implant restorations, Invisalign aligners, crowns, and Six Month Smiles, patients have access to outstanding dental services. Staff regularly participate in ongoing education and training opportunities to learn how to leverage these tools to their greatest advantage.
History
Established in 1986.
DK Family Dental, though reformed over previous years, has been a pillar of the community since 1986. Dr. Dustin Karren began his practice following Dr. Rushlo's retirement, inheriting a bountiful patient database, outstanding staff, and an exquisite foundation that he would soon turn into his own. Dr. Karren maintained Dr. Rushlo's dental philosophy, being of the upmost quality when referring to patient care.

Alumni member of Omicron Kappa Upsilon of the National Dental Honor Society, he is also a current member of the American and Arizona Dental Association with 17 years of professional experience.
Given his broad understanding of dentistry, Dr. Karren focuses on efficiently updating his techniques in order to maintain apprehension on today's latest technology. His most recent advancements have given him the opportunity to offer "6-Month Smiles" Orthodontic Treatment, Advanced Implant Restoration, Advanced Root-Canal Therapy, and Lumineers to his patients.
When Dr. Karren isn't in the office caring for patients, he enjoys devoting free time to his wife Nicole and their three children. Sports play an important role in the Karren family, especially when it comes to their enthusiasm for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
