Meet Dr. Shults
Dr. Lawrence “Larry” Shults DDS, MsD was born and raised in Mesa, Arizona and graduated from Mountain View High School. Before becoming a Mesa pediatric dentist he served as a missionary in Madrid, Spain, where he became fluent in Spanish and gained a profound respect for people from different cultures.
He graduated cum laude from ASU with a B.S. in Biology, and then attended dental school at the University of Colorado Health Science Center where he achieved his DDS degree, also graduating cum laude. He then spent two years practicing general dentistry in Sierra Vista, AZ where he realized his true passion was in helping children with their dental needs.
He decided to further his dental education in Richmond, VA where he spent an additional two years in a post-graduate residency program and earned his Specialty Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry and a Master’s of Science in Dentistry at the Virginia Commonwealth University. Dr Shults has received many honors and privileges throughout his educational and professional career including membership in the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, Arizona Dental Association, American Dental Association, and Board Candidate status with the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.
Dr. Shults loves the great outdoors, biking, hiking, camping, and anything that involves being with his AMAZING wife and four children. “I consider it a privilege to have your trust and confidence placed in me as your pediatric dentist, and I thank you in advance for the opportunity to serve you in providing the best in oral healthcare available to your child in the best environment I can.”

What Amazing Kidz patients and their parents say when they smile out loud!
This office is hands down the best dentist we have ever been to! Anyone considering using this office should not hesitate, you won’t be disappointed!! My only complaint is that they don’t do adult dental work because I would bring my whole family in for care!!
What a great experience my son and I had with Amazing Pediatric Dentistry. A short wait to go back helped with any nerves he had. Once in the back, he was treated so kindly by the capable staff. For any challenges, a quick solution. We look forward to our next visit!
I shopped around for a great pediatric dentist and found it here! Not only does the staff treat you with respect and cheer, they treat the children well and make it an almost magical experience. Between the crystal chandelier over their heads by the x-ray and the fun games and tokens for the prize at the end—your kids will truly enjoy this place!
Took my 16 month old because he had chipped his tooth on our tile. I was able to have him seen that day! Everyone there was so nice and they made the experience as fun as possible for my little guy. The whole office is definitely geared towards kids and making it a great experience for them. Would highly recommend going there!
