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

I had not been to the Dentist in a while. This office was great to work with. Not judgmental at all and had great flexibility to work with my schedule. Will be back in 6 months and keep going back after that!

I LOVE visiting Ankeny Family Dental. The staff are so friendly and welcome you by name. Nothing impersonal and cold about them. I recently had fillings done, and both Susan and Dr. Shaver were phenomenal. In addition to making me feel completely at ease, Dr. Shaver made sure I felt heard before, during, and after the procedure. I highly recommend this place to residents of Ankeny and beyond!
