Complete Care for Every Smile

Our Services

We offer a full range of pediatric dental services to patients in Ahwatukee, Chandler, Laveen, & surrounding South Mountain areas —from preventive care and habit counseling to orthodontics and emergency treatment. Every child’s smile is unique, and our approach is too—gentle, engaging, and tailored to their needs.

    Preventive Dentistry

    Dr. Culp conservatively practices pediatric dentistry in Phoenix, Arizona, to ensure your child’s smile stays healthy and bright, focusing on education and prevention rather than unnecessary treatment. At Jungle Roots Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics, we strive to give your child a “dental home.” Dr. Culp and our team have been trained in compassionate and calming techniques that will lessen anxiety around visiting the dentist, allowing your child to have a positive experience at the office.

    Restorative Dentistry

    Despite our best efforts to keep children’s teeth healthy, there are times when teeth restoration is necessary (in both primary and permanent teeth). Children’s teeth can become damaged for many reasons, such as accidents while playing, chewing on hard food items, or small cavities. While most reasons for a damaged tooth can be avoided, everyone knows that accidents happen! Our staff is well-trained to restore your child’s teeth with fillings, extractions, and pulp and crown services for damaged or chipped teeth, ensuring they stay strong for years.

    From early assessments to braces, Jungle Roots Children's Dentistry & Orthodontics also offers a comprehensive range of orthodontics for kids, teens, and adults, including braces and clear aligners, to help correct misalignment and ensure a healthy, beautiful smile.

    Sedation Dentistry

    At Jungle Roots Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics, we recognize your child needs to be comfortable. With Dr. Culp’s pediatric training, we can offer safe and effective techniques to alleviate fear and discomfort during procedures, ensuring your child’s dental treatment is a positive experience that fosters trust and cooperation.

    Special Needs Dentistry

    Dr. Culp and the Jungle Roots Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics team understand every child has different needs. As a board-certified pediatric dentist in Phoenix, Arizona, Dr. Culp has over twenty years of experience in handling a wide variety of children’s dental needs, including but not limited to physical handicaps, autism spectrum disorders, sensory and speech-related delays and disorders, and other impairments. Please make our office aware of any health conditions your child has, so we can prepare our team accordingly to give your child the best possible dental experience in our office.

    Emergency Dentistry

    While there are many reasons why you may contact us about your child’s emergent care, rest assured that there are only a few circumstances for which your child will need to be seen immediately, including a permanent (adult) tooth being knocked out, a chipped or broken tooth, or other significant trauma to the mouth. If your child has a toothache or other concern, please call us to determine the best course of action. Please contact our office after hours for assistance in emergent situations.
