Dr. Carson's dental practice is in the heart of Tucson, Arizona. Although he moved here recently, he brings a wealth of experience---three generations worth, in fact. Dr. Carson is the son of a periodontist who is the son of a prosthodontist. He grew up with dentistry as his calling. Read on to find out more about Dr. Carson, his wife, Kim, and their horse.
John R. Carson, DDS, PC
Dr. Carson was born in Kansas City, Missouri, but he has lived just about everywhere as the son of a military man, a periodontist in the Navy. Dr. Carson received his dental degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry. Upon graduation he joined the Air Force, and a year later, in 2001, was named outstanding company grade officer in the 355th Dental Squadron.
Dr. Carson has received advanced training through The Pankey Institute, a prestigious and well-known educational organization that attracts dentists and dental professionals from around the world seeking to advance their dental knowledge. He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, the Arizona Dental Association, the Southern Arizona Dental Society, the Pima Dental Study Club, and the LD Pankey Alumni Association.
He is a big believer in continuing his education beyond dental school, so much so, that he has accumulated 400 hours worth of continuing education in the last three years--more than five times the number required in most states and dental organizations. For you the patient, this means you couldn't be in more competent hands when it comes to dental care. Dr. Carson has experience and training in all aspects of general dentistry, including esthetics, endodontics, prosthodontics, periodontics, oral surgery, and implantology.

But what about the horse?
We love horses and we own this one, a beautiful American Saddelbred show horse named Dark Justice. Isn't he gorgeous? We show him in Arizona and California, and we're proud to say he's won numerous awards. (He's got a nice smile too!)
