Dentistry On 5th

Dentistry On 5th sits above street level on Des Moines’ 5th Avenue, where the usual storefront shuffle gives way to a quieter door with a dental sign. Crowns, cleanings, fillings, implants, and emergency slots factor into the day-to-day, but the building itself is just another mid-century box downtown—solid, unassuming, and easy to miss if you blink. Local offices and retail mix at this stretch, so parking can be spotty on weekdays, but the address stays fixed: 505 5th Ave #939, Des Moines, IA 50309. Call before you drop by — the phone number ends up in the pocket directory: (515) 243-4616. The real estate above street level isn’t glamorous, but it keeps the clinic above the sidewalk noise. When you need directions, a quick search pulls up the map so you can trace the block without circling twice. Most people arrive knowing the cross streets; once you’re on 5th, the elevator ride up is the only detail left to handle.
