Pediatric dentistry centers specializing in young patients offer preventive care to shape lifelong oral health. The office is tucked inside Suite 10 of the 73rd Street plaza—1000 73rd St Suite 10, West Des Moines, IA 50265—so parents can pop in after nearby errands. Steven Whittemore, D.D.S. handles regular check-ups, fluoride treatments, and early interceptive orthodontic screening without steering families into separate specialists.

Minor emergencies—chipped teeth after recess, lingering tooth pain—often land here before general practices step in. The practice also tracks developing occlusion and applies protective sealants to permanent molars, plus custom athletic mouth guards for kids active in soccer and basketball. Spacing analysis and space maintainers round out the toolbox for families juggling multiple school pickups and work schedules.
