Ankeny Family Dental Center

About Us

We do general dentistry for your family.

Here at Ankeny Family Dental Center, we practice general dentistry for the whole family. We are not a corporate dental office; we are a locally owned. You are not just a number. We recognize you have your own dental needs and goals, and we do our best to make sure you feel welcomed and comfortable through all your dental care needs.

Some patients tell us that we remind them of a “small-town” business. That’s because we get to know you, do what’s best for you, and do our best to serve you and your needs. As things get bigger and busier, we promise to stay true to those values.

We do cosmetic procedures, too.

Most of what we do is practical, traditional dentistry. However, we can also do a wide variety of cosmetic procedures as well. We can give you the smile you want using:

Dental crowns
Dental bonding
Composite (white) fillings
Clear Aligners

This was my first visit to Ankeny Family Dental Center. Overall I was very impressed with the whole experience - from check-in, to teeth cleaning, and conversation with Sarah and Dr. Palmer. The level of care is top notch and I look forward to continuing my dental care with the both of them.

On 7/17/2024 Sara Anderson had this to say:
After experiencing ongoing challenges with crowns and sensitive teeth, I had doubts about finding a dentist I could trust. However, I am pleased to say that I have found that trust with Dr. Lensch and his team. The welcoming environment and personalized care I receive during each visit have truly exceeded my expectations. Dr. Lensch and his staff have demonstrated exceptional patience and professionalism, especially when addressing my teeth clenching and grinding issues. Thanks to Dr. Lensch's attention to detail, my custom night guard, which was created in-office, fits perfectly and has relieved me of morning headaches. I am grateful for the exemplary care and expertise provided by Dr. Lensch and his team.

I have been going here for the last two years and have really enjoyed my experiences. The doctors are all amazing and so is the hygiene team. Emily is one of the best hygienists there is. She is super knowledgable and a great clinician. She takes wonderful care of myself and my kids. I would recommend this dental office to anyone looking for one!
