Fuller Associates Family DNTST
Whether your needs are minor or extensive, we offer a range of services from whitening to porcelain crowns and bridges. We conduct an initial consultation to better serve you and learn about the smile of your dreams. From cleanings to digital x-rays, Dr. Fuller and staff are dedicated to keeping your smile healthy and happy!

Dental implants are a permanent solution to replacing missing teeth. Dental implants are placed by a local oral surgeon and Dr. Fuller restores the implants to full functionality. Fuller Associates Family Dentistry opened in 1963 by the late Dr. Richard Fuller. At the time, the Des Moines office was split into two businesses, our dental practice and the osteopathic office of physician, Dr. Jack Wakefield.
Services
Regular dental cleanings every 6 months, along with routine home-care, have led to good oral hygiene. Cleanings remove plaque and calculus to help with the prevention of cavities, gingivitis, and periodontal disease. Fuller Associates strives to provide the latest technology to our patients. Digital x-rays allow us to obtain a comprehensive evaluation with 90% less radiation than traditional film x-rays.
Are you a coffee, wine, or pop drinker? Our in-office treatment is completed in 1 hour resulting in multiple shades whiter. Custom bleach trays are another option if you would prefer to whiten in your own home when it is most convenient. The trays are made personally for you, unlike many whitening systems.
Are you unhappy with your smile? We would be happy to have a consultation with you to help create a new smile that you will love again. Dental fillings are made up of a variety of materials. We use composite resin, glass ionomer, and amalgam restorative materials. We have conservative options as well that be can applied to initial incipient lesions like, silver diamine fluoride (SDF).
Dr. Fuller has been practicing general dentistry for 31 years. He graduated from the University of Iowa with a Bachelor of Science Degree in General Science. Next, he continued his education at the University of Iowa College of Dentistry to earn his DDS degree, Doctor of Dental Surgery. Upon graduation, Dr. Fuller moved to Des Moines, IA to work along side his father, the late Dr.

I've been going to Fuller Associates most of my life. Started there when I was a kid with Richard Fuller and now I see Steven Fuller. I love the family atmosphere at Fuller. You feel like part of the family from the minute you walk in the door and most businesses could only wish for their clients to have that feeling. I would 100% recommend the awesome and professional staff at Fuller Associates.

Dr. Fuller is a great dentist. He truly cares about his patients. He worked me in to have a crown completed before my trip to Vegas a few years ago. He’s never tried to suggest unnecessary dental work to pad his pocketbook.

I have been going to Dr Fuller a few years now and was so happy to find such a reputable
Dentist and hygienist so close to where I live. Very convenient! The staff are very
helpful, kind and friendly. I really appreciate not having unnecessary tests and xrays at every
visit like I had at other dentists, only when I have a problem. Office and patient rooms are very
clean and orderly. Many thanks for all they have done for me. Donna Butler
