Can anyone recommend a pediatric specialty dentist? My 6 year old has been traumatized by a previous dental experience and has a break down at the very mention of going...

Dr. Burns at Jordan Creek Pediatric Dentistry in west Des Moines. We refer our patient to him, he is wonderful!!!!
Diana S. replied:
Dr. Enloe is great and with kids. Keep going to him!'
David F. replied:
When I was that age I went thru the same thing. I was 40 years old before I found a dentist that didn't scare the heck out of me and put me into a cold chill. Then I found one here in Cedar Rapids. He is so good that kids get into fights to be the first one to get to go in. He loves kids and they all love him. He is Dr. Wes Cervney here in Cedar Rapids. Well worth the trip.
Jamie B. replied:
I would stay with Dr Enloe. He would be way better than Dr Evans. I quit taking my kids to dr Evans because of the way he treated my son and back then I took him to Dr Brechon... my son loved him and he is great with kids
Tracy C. replied:
In Coralville, Polly Iben DDS. I was traumatized as a kid and I did not want my kids to have the same trauma. I know several of my friends that go to her and she was recommended by Dr Enloe DDS. She is amazing and the drive is well worth it.

Jamie B. replied:
Jim Enloe is a really good dentist. I started going to Dr Jones at River Hills Because I needed in right away and I really like him. He referred me to a doctor when he saw my blood pressure was sky high. ... turns out it was just my fear of the dentist. .LOL. Dr Jones pulled a tooth a few months ago and I didn't feel a thing
Victor N. replied:
I had a great experience at Dr. Evans
Wanda S. replied:
Dr Enloe
Judy W. replied:
Been seeing Dr. JONES at River Hills. Awesome Dr, his knowledge, manners and the full attention he gives his patients. Highy recommend him. WAS seeing dr Enloe, but after 13 yrs he dropped me like a hot potato due to the fact that he was no longer going to accept my insurance. Very rude the way it ended.

I love both Dr Brechon and Dr Hammer. In the same building on corner of Elm and Pennsylvania
Courtney H. replied:
Davis county Dental is great, slightly expensive, but go to River Hills! Dr. Dye is FANTASTIC! I had a root canal done by him and it was reasonably priced plus minimal pain. He's excellent and would recommend him any day of the week. Plus they have a sliding scale. They take your income into consideration if that's an option you need!
Dan D. replied:
Dr Enlow main street
Peggy C. replied:
I had an emergency just last month and Dr Gillespie was the only one who made the time for me. Seen and treated in the same day. Pain free and reasonably priced. Highly recommend him.

I like River Hills in Richland. I drive over an hour to go to Dr. Hilger. He is amazing.
Tabitha G. replied:
Dr. Gillespie but I have to say that:)

I go to Osky dental when I had problems he was the only one to get me in the next day. Very good personality. The whole staff there is great.
Joni M. replied:
Don't go to Aspen Dental.
Teila L. replied:
Dr. Enloe in ottumwa! He is THE best!!!
Nate C. replied:
Many of the dentists here will be hard to get into. If you have issues, go to Osky Dental. Dr. Dan takes care of me there and does a great job! They can get you in same day usually because they don't accept title 19, so their waiting list isn't full as you'll find with Ottumwa.
Nate C. replied:
If Osky doesn't work, Davis County Dental is good as well from what I've seen. My son goes there normally!
Any recommendations for a pediatrician and dentist?
Chris W. replied:
Dr Dodson (All Ages Pediatrics) and Dr Brechon (Hammer & Brechon)
Sonja L. replied:
Dr Hammer or Dr Brechon for Dentist. Dr. Jay Heitsman in Fairfield for pediatrician. Worth the short drive!!!!
Charlie H. replied:
Enloe for dentist and Dr Kanis at Pella clinic
Cynthia B. replied:
I don't know that Dr. Heitsman accepts new patients anymore! Which is such a bummer because he's the best around!!!!

Emma A. replied:
I went to Dr. Miller as a child&really liked her, but I have heard amazing things about Dr. Dodson.
Stacy D. replied:
Dr. Jay Heitsman he's in Fairfield he's the best!
Emma A. replied:
I went to Dr. Evans as a child (over ten years ago), &he was terrible. He made me HATE going to the dentist because it always hurt. He's far too rough&careless. I have loved going to the dentist ever since my mom switched me to a new one.

Dr. Dodson peds and either hammer or Enloe for dentist

Theresa J. replied:
I would recommend Dr Enloe. It's going to be hard to get him in anywhere in a week though, especially if he's new to a practice.
Nate C. replied:
Thanks for all the options everyone, we got an appt at Davis County Dental this afternoon:)
Angie H. replied:
Dr Brechon is great!!!
Alicia R. replied:
Dr. Enloe is excellent with kids! You will really like him!
So I have had my kids see Dr Evans 4 a dentist since they were babies. My daughter has needed braces 4 the last 2 years & he has told us we need approved. 2 1/2 yrs...
Heather J. replied:
Dr. Evans doesn't do braces does he? You would need to go to an orthodontist for a free consultation. They would take pictures may even do molds and send this information to your insurance company for approval. You also have the option to pay out if pocket if the orthodontist agrees your child needed braces. I have 4 children who are in or have been in braces; each case was decided by an orthodontist not a dentist.
Laura G. replied:
I take my five year old to Osky dental. Love him.
Daphane H. replied:
Jennifer Lea Hodson he's been saying this to us too
Deborah W. replied:
Worst dentist ever! When I lived there I went to him. But he scared me to death!
Gwen B. replied:
Dr. Enlo is great.
Shelley W. replied:
Enloe is great with kids. Burlington dental is great with specialized stuff that Enloe refers .
Harold S. replied:
I have known Dr. Enloe for many years, my daughter thinks the world of him, highly recommend giving him a chance and Patritto for the braces
Carrie T. replied:
I have also used Dr Evans for my daughter the last 12 years. He has always been professional with us. His staff has always been great also!
Tonya P. replied:
The only problem I have with Dr Evans is that he said no one in their right mind would put braces on my 13 year old because he is autistic. So because he has autism, he doesn't deserve a nice even smile? So we are getting another dentist for my 13 year old. Never had any problems with him with my other 3 kids, and he is the one that referred me to U of I to get my oldest's tooth rebuilt when he broke it at school.
Susan G. replied:
Go to Cynthia Phillips. She is amazing!
Amie P. replied:
go to Dr thompson in Iowa City in the same office as Dr Suzanne Stock who does braces on kids all the time with all insurance
Are there any dentists in or around ottunwa that I can go in and get a tooth pulled without having to schedule another appointment??!?! Thank you.

I have a serious fear of dentist and I will only trust Dr, Stream! He is very understanding and knows what he is doing. He gets in and gets out! He won't make you set up another appointment unless you prefer to do so.
Brianna G. replied:
Dr. Dye at river hills is good!
Pat J. replied:
Dr Evans
Pat G. replied:
Dr. Enloe for sure but if it's infected you best get some antibiotics in there first.

Anyone know of any good gentle kind dentists in Ottumwa or around who aren't horrible on the pocketbook as I don't have insurance? Ones who are good with those terrified...
Nicole B. replied:
My kids and I see Dr. Enloe. He is really nice and is humorous which can help with the anxiety.
Brad B. replied:
I see Dr Davis in Albia. He is the only one I have been able to see as I am also scared to death of dentists . He is a very calming man.
Amy N. replied:
Dr. Cynthia Phillips! She is sooo kind and good! She is on the south side behind the tower
Heather S. replied:
I used to go to Dr. Dye at River Hills and he was amazing and calming. Since he has left I haven't been able to bring myself to go anywhere else.
