Welcome to Kerr Family Dental, the Osceola, Iowa dental practice of Dr. Derek Kerr and his team. We look forward to meeting you! We welcome new patients of all ages - even kids - and our entire staff is dedicated to helping each of you maintain a healthy, comfortable smile. Nothing is worse than being treated like just another person on the schedule.
We never treat our patients that way because one of the greatest joys we get to experience is getting to know each of you personally. We look forward to your visits and to catching up on the latest developments in your family - marriages, babies, and graduations are all milestones we love to be a part of.

Our team truly cares about our patients and we offer the same great dentistry we would want for our own friends and family. Take a moment to get to know us by reading our biographies below. We can't wait to meet you at Kerr Family Dental. Dr. Kerr is an Iowa native and attended Tripoli High School before he set off to the University of Iowa College of Engineering for undergraduate school.
Welcome to Kerr Family Dental, the general dental practice of Derek Kerr, DDS where we treat your family like our family! We welcome new patients of all ages - including your kids and are committed to improving and protecting the oral health of your family. We offer everything that families need to keep their teeth and gums healthy.
This is why we may use an intraoral camera during your visit. An intraoral camera allows us to see things that don't show up on x-rays and may be missed with the naked eye. It also gives us the ability to show you a picture of what is going on in your mouth. This information can be used to help educate you on oral issues or see why certain treatment may be recommended.
Just like a house needs a strong foundation to stand on, so do your teeth. Healthy bone and gums are the strong foundation your teeth need in order to function properly. Regular dental cleanings and check-ups are essential in maintaining this healthy foundation. Your mouth is also the gateway to the rest of your body and research has linked periodontal (gum) infections to many other health issues such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
At Kerr Family Dental we believe caring for our teeth starts before we even get our baby teeth. Creating a lifetime of healthy teeth and cavity free check-ups is our main goal for all of the kiddos. We try and make it as convenient as possible to schedule the whole family at one time whenever possible.
