We recognize that all of our young patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your child to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.
It is immensely enjoyable to be able to work with kids and special needs patients on a daily basis. Every patient is unique, and every day brings about a handful of wonderful and genuine moments to remember. Dr. Chris is a native of Michigan. His interest in dentistry began when he was a kid, enjoying visits to the dentist, and soon asked to spend "Take Your Child to Work Day" at the family dentist's office instead of with his parents.
The most exciting and rewarding part of my profession is being able to help a child grow and overcome fears, by delivering the care needed for them to become a healthy and confident dental patient. As a mom, I understand the importance of having children feel comfortable and confident at the dentist.
You want the best for your child: a full and happy life, success in all they set out to do, and excellent health. With all of that, you also want them to have a great smile, one that's confident and allows their personality to shine! At Ankeny Children's Dental, we want the same. Dr. Christopher Myers, Dr. Julie Smith, and our team are dedicated to providing every child with positive dental experiences.
The American Board of Pediatric Dentistry (ABPD) was organized by the American Society of Dentistry for Children in 1940. It is the only ADA-recognized certifying board for the specialty of pediatric dentistry. The vision of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry is to achieve excellence in pediatric dentistry through certification of all pediatric dentists.
