Each of our doctors have a passion for performing dentistry; it truly shows with the way they treat their patients daily, within the practice and within the community.

Each doctor on our team has an incredible dedication to continuing education to provide our patients with the most modern and proven techniques in dentistry. They are both active members of the American Dental Association and the Iowa Dental Association. Dr. Brad and Dr. Maranda are active members of the Des Moines District Dental Society.

Dr. Brad and some of our dental team travel to El Salvador on an annual basis to provide dental and medical care for patients in rural and underserved communities with other dental and medical teams.
