Pediatric dentists complete an extra 2-3 years of specialty training after finishing dental school just to learn about the unique oral health needs of children, including those with special needs. You take your child to a pediatrician, you should take your child to a pediatric dentist.
'We have been going here for almost 6 years, and will not be going any where else. Dr. Kubovich and his staff are all so caring, nice and welcoming. My kids have had the greatest experience, and look forward to their 6 month check up.'
'Very positive first dentist experience for my 17 month old son. The receptionist, dental hygienist and dentist were all very friendly and professional. Even when my son cried in the exam room, they werent phased, and they worked very quickly. The fun safari decor and movies playing in the waiting and exam rooms were great.'
'All members of the staff are amazing to work with. They work great with my children who have special needs in a caring, gentle way and are very thorough and professional. The dentist is also very thorough and I highly recommend him got anyone looking for quality service with a personal touch.'

I've changed my review of this place from 4 stars to 1. When we started here, I was super happy with it and left a 4 star review. That's changed over the last year. They stopped doing anything other than routine checks on my daughter and referred us for EVERYTHING to have to go to Iowa City. For reasons that were never explained to me. When I voiced I didn't want even REGULAR work done there, especially since I've been trying to get a cavity for my daughter fixed thru them and this place for 8 months, while my child's dealing with this, never once have they tried to help me fix this issue, offered any kind of assistance to help me get her seen by anyone, and never once have I had any of the 4 voice-mail I've left returned. Completely disappointed and offended that they've deteriorated so horrifically.

All three of our kids go to Des Moines Pediatric Dentistry and they LOVE it (and I do, too)! We've had multiple rounds of cleanings, one cavity, and one tooth removed between the three of them and they still love to go! All of the staff does a great job keeping it "kid friendly" and they are so considerate of scheduling (with siblings). We love DM Pediatric Dental Center :) Thanks, guys!

They took the time to make sure my child with special needs was comfortable and really worked with him. We'll be switching the whole family over

Great experience. We have three young kids, so going to appointments all together can be stressful. This dentist has tablets for kids to play on while they wait, and both times we've gone, they have gotten all three of our kids in at the same time. The girls that cleaned their teeth are incredibly sweet, and the dentist is quick and informative. Couldn't imagine a better pediatric dentist!

My son had his first visit to the dentist here and it went smoothly! He left feeling positive and that's the most important thing. Along with no cavities! Special thanks to the dental hygienist that made him feel comfortable and encouraged him throughout the appointment.

Actual dentist was pretty straight forward seemed busy. The woman who cleaned my baby girls teeth and did r rays was awesome! Super sweet and guided my 4 year old along every step made sure she was comfortable and knew exactly what was happening at every moment also was very engaging and made my baby apart of everything! This is the best dental care or even health care we've ever experienced!

My son absolutely loved this place! He went to a previous dentist that we didn't really care for, so this was our first visit. The place was really clean, they have iPads on the walls that the kids can play with in the waiting rooms, friendly, let the parents go back with the children, fast! Highly recommend!
