Dr. Alex Phan

Not every dental practice blends into the backdrop of suburban Urbandale, but Dr. Alex Phan keeps a low-profile presence just off 104th Street. This isn’t the kind of place that advertises flashy specialties or crowds its lobby with promotional banners. Instead, it sits at 3124 104th St, a straightforward address for anyone needing routine cleanings, fillings, or more involved procedures like crowns and extractions. The neighborhood itself is a mix of quiet residential blocks and small commercial strips, making it easy to swing by after work or on an errand loop through west Des Moines.

Dentistry in this part of Iowa tends to prioritize function over frills, and this office follows that pattern. While some clinics lean heavily into cosmetic treatments or pediatric themes, the focus here remains on general and restorative care—think root canals, bridges, and preventive checkups. There’s no need to sift through pages of services to figure out if they handle basic needs; the approach is direct, which suits patients who’d rather skip the upsell conversations. Urbandale’s growth over the past decade means more options for dental care, but longevity in a single location still counts for something.

Booking an appointment or asking about insurance coverage is as simple as calling (515) 276-7925, and the office keeps its map listing updated for first-time visitors. For exact directions or to double-check the address, the Google Maps entry has the details pinned. It’s one of those places that doesn’t need a grand introduction—just a note on where to find it.
