Cosmetic Dentistry in Des Moines

27 clinics · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

Cosmetic dentistry covers the treatments people book to change how their smile looks - veneers, teeth whitening, bonding, smile makeovers and tooth-colored crowns. Most practices in this directory offer several of these under one roof, which matters because bigger smile plans are usually quoted as a package rather than per menu item. When comparing clinics, look at how they present their work: before-and-after galleries of their own patients, clear per-tooth or per-treatment pricing, and a consultation that ends with a written quote. Google review volume is a useful first filter - established cosmetic practices tend to have long review histories. Confirm treatment options and pricing at a consultation with a licensed dentist.

Below are 27 dental clinics offering cosmetic dentistry in Des Moines, IA, ranked by Google review volume so you can start with the most established options and contact them directly. The most-reviewed is East Des Moines Dental. (4★, 46 Google reviews).

How do I choose a cosmetic dentist? +

Look at before-and-after photos of the practice's own patients, Google review volume and rating, and whether the office provides a written treatment plan with itemized pricing. Comparing quotes from two or three consultations is normal and worth the time.

Does dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry? +

Most plans treat purely cosmetic work such as whitening or veneers as elective and don't cover it, though restorative parts of a plan (like crowns) may be partially covered. Many practices offer financing or payment plans - ask what the office accepts when you book a consultation.
