Oral Surgeons PC: Johnson Scott A DDS

Dental surgery isn’t everyday work. Oral Surgeons PC: Johnson Scott A DDS handles the procedures that general dentists refer out—wisdom teeth, implants, bone grafts, and corrective jaw surgery. Clive’s medical zoning keeps these specialists close to the hospitals and imaging centers they often collaborate with, which can simplify follow-up care.

The practice sits at 12345 University, a stretch of road where Clive’s older retail strips meet newer office parks. Patients from West Des Moines and Waukee end up here when their regular dentist flags something that needs a surgical touch. The address is easy to spot from the main drag, though the building itself blends into the landscape of low-slung brick facades.

Most visits start with a referral, but anyone can call (515) 414-7744 to schedule a consult. The office books new patients quickly, which is rare for a specialty that often has long waitlists. Procedures are typically covered by insurance, though the staff will walk through out-of-pocket estimates before anything is scheduled.

For directions, pull up the map and set University as your target. The drive from downtown Des Moines takes about twenty minutes without traffic, and the parking lot is shared with a physical therapy clinic, so spaces are usually open.
