Meet Dr. Culver

Judith A. Culver, DDS

The journey a patient takes on the road to a beautiful, healthy smile is an amazing thing to witness. I love being able to help my patients achieve their goals. Whether they simply want to maintain their existing oral health, improve the state of their teeth and gums, or attain a brilliant smile through orthodontic treatment, I truly feel like I’ve made a positive difference in their lives. I love helping people feel better, both physically and emotionally.

My team and I pride ourselves on being fair, honest, and ethical because of the trust our patients have placed in us. My team is terrific at helping me give our patients the best dentistry in the most efficient manner. They understand that we are all an extension of each other, and we feel this is our office - not mine. We all feel like the patients here are a part of our family.

Dentistry is constantly changing, and the only way to keep current is through continuing education. Through courses and seminars, I am able to learn new and improved ways of doing things in today’s ever-changing world of materials and treatment options. It is always my goal to give patients the most effective treatment available, and I achieve that through continuing my own education.

Outside the Office

I am originally from Iowa and have lived in Indiana for the past 16 years. My son, Brian, is the center of my world! I am so fortunate to be a mother to a fantastic boy. We also have three cats that he loves to boss around. I enjoy exercising, particularly biking and hiking. I spend a lot of my free time helping at my son’s school or with his ball teams. I love watching the kids develop and learn. They’re so excited to learn something new, and it reminds me of what’s truly important in life.
