Reviews of Iowa Pediatric Dental Center

Hear from Eastern Iowa families about why they trust us with their children’s dental care:

Friendly staff, great environment for kids. My child gets anxious, but it quickly subsides once he goes back and knows he gets to pick out a fun toy.

Was my daughter’s first time in yesterday and she absolutely loved it and wants to go back. I was afraid she was going to be scared but they did an amazing job and you can tell they really love and adore children. Would recommend to anybody.

My teenager has severe anxiety and had not seen a dentist in about 5 years. The hygienist at Iowa Pediatric Dental Center was awesome. She explained every step of the visit to my daughter with clarity and kindness. My daughter had a great experience!

Everyone was extremely nice and helpful to my kids. They did really good at calming my son down and answering any questions he had.

Safe clean space in the waiting area. Super friendly front desk lady. We went in for 2 cavity fillings and it took them 20 minutes! The dentist explained everything to my 6 year old and let her touch the tools and ask questions. Good vibes and very great atmosphere.

I like bringing my great granddaughter to Iowa Pediatric Dental Center. The ladies are always so pleasant and are very professional. My great granddaughter never has any complaints when she comes out and is pleased with the dental hygiene lady.
