Drs. Ames Cross and Mallory Cross and our dental team work hard every day to provide patients in Madrid, IA with high-quality patient care delivered with compassion and kindness in a warm and safe environment. We take time to answer your questions, listen to your concerns, and work together to design treatment plans that treat, restore, and enhance your smile.

At Madrid Family Dental, we uphold traditional values like honesty, integrity, communication, and confidence. Our dental staff members are down-to-earth and friendly; we never rush patients or make them feel unvalued. Everyone is important at our dental office.

Our dentists and their team are here to listen, answer questions, and provide guidance throughout their oral health journey. We want patients to feel comfortable enough to confide in us about their smile goals or ask questions they might have felt embarrassed to discuss with a stranger. There are no strangers here; we treat everyone with the respect we would expect for our own family. We also never pressure patients to rush into decisions or rush them out the door.

Our dentists love interacting with patients and their families. Many dental health offices can be so busy that they forget to take the time to sit down and educate their patients or making sure patients understand their treatment plans. At Madrid Family Dental, you can take a deep breath and relax with us.

Our dental team understands the benefit of having a healthy and beautiful smile, and we want to help you understand what choices can maintain excellent oral health. We love seeing patients who are confident about their oral health.
