With a history of over 30 years in practice, the clinic is dedicated to offering comprehensive dental care for the entire family, from young children (ages 2 and up) to seniors. The practice is built on a philosophy of putting patients first, emphasizing the "Golden Rule" of treating patients as they would want to be treated. Drs. Dave Lickteig and Chad King are committed to educating their patients thoroughly about their oral health conditions and explaining all available treatment options, empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their dental care. They strive to provide care that is tailored to each patient's specific needs and desires, rather than pushing unnecessary procedures.

They also provide nitrous oxide sedation for patients who may experience anxiety or nervousness during dental procedures, ensuring a comfortable and relaxed environment. While they handle most common dental needs in-house, they are also prepared to refer patients to specialists for more complex procedures like implant placements or certain root canals, ensuring patients receive the best possible care. The clinic prides itself on its experienced and caring staff, with an average staff experience of 23 years, many of whom were born and raised in Iowa. This contributes to a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making patients feel at home. West Des Moines Family Dentistry is equipped with state-of-the-art dental equipment and maintains an excellent reputation within the community. They accept most dental insurance plans and offer discounts for patients who pay at the time of service, as well as a 10% discount for patients over 65 without dental insurance, demonstrating a commitment to making dental care affordable and accessible. Patient testimonials frequently highlight the friendly and professional nature of the staff, the comfortable setting, and the thoroughness of the dental care provided.

Dr King is the best!! Used to find any reason not to go to the dentist. I would only go if I had an issue and since meeting Dr King I’m an every 6 month guy and look forward to seeing him. He has been my dentist for 9 years and the only one I would recommend for my friends and family.. If you want a friendly conservative dentist that cares he is your dentist!!!

It was my four and two year old little men first time to visit a dentist and their experience were the absolute best. The team from the entrance to the examination room were amazing. My kiddos had an amazing time and I fell in love with the office, it’s staff and the jobs they did. I would totally recommend this office to all. Thanks for showing my kids such an amazing time.

In my opinion, I had the worst dental experience of my life at this dental practice with dentist Chad King. In the process of investigating this dentist after this experience, I found that this dentist was previously suspended from practicing dentistry in Iowa by the state dental board. He was charged with inability to practice dentistry with reasonable skill and safety by reason of illness, drunkenness, or habitual or excessive use of drugs, narcotics, chemicals, or other types of materials or as a a result of mental or physical condition. He was also charged by the state dental board with fraud or deceit in procuring the license or registration or the renewal thereof to practice dentistry.

The board also received a complaint expressing concern that he might be using illicit substances at his dental office in 2017. Due to these things, his license to practice dentistry was indefinitely suspended and approved by the state dental board on May 18th, 2017 and his license to practice dentistry was later reinstated under the monitoring of the Impaired Practitioner Review Committee. All of this information was procured directly from the state dental board of Iowa website. This dental clinic was made known to me through my dental insurance provider's website, and I had no idea that I was being seen and treated by a dentist that had previously had their license to practice dentistry suspended by the state dental board.

If I had known this, I would not have felt comfortable having a dentist with this history of reprimand by the state dental board work on my teeth and would not have chosen to be seen by this dental physician.

I had a tooth extracted and was very satisfied with their care before this, however I had excruciating pain and swelling for several days after. I left a message with their office and no one ever called me back. Then I called Dr. King's number twice and left a detailed message, but never received a call back from him either.
